Syria Confirms Nuclear Material Retention
Syria announced for the first time the presence of nuclear materials within its territory, affirming that Damascus intends to retain them and subject them to guarantees and inspections by the International Atomic Energy Agency. Syrian Foreign Minister Asaad Al-Shihabi confirmed that the materials are not dangerous and that their use is limited to civilian and peaceful purposes, in compliance with international regulations. Syria also permitted IAEA teams to access a site in Deir ez-Zor, more than 18 years after an Israeli attack targeted a Syrian nuclear facility in 2007.
