Syrian Explanation about Uranium Does Not Square with IAEA Tests
[DPA-Earth Times] Syria's initial explanation about uranium traces found by the International Atomic Energy Agency on its territory do not square with the agency's analysis, an IAEA report issued on Monday said. IAEA inspectors have found traces of man-made uranium at the al-Kibar site and at a small research reactor in Damascus. "The results do not support Syria's earlier explanation for the origin and presence of the particles," IAEA Director General Mohamed ElBaradei said in his report. The IAEA has made it clear that it does not believe that the uranium particles found at al-Kibar came from Israeli munitions, as Damascus alleges.
