IAEA Ends Syria Nuclear Secrecy
The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Board confirmed that it has concluded its investigation into Syria's previous secret nuclear activities. The Board acknowledged the existence of a site suspected to be a nuclear reactor that was near completion before Israel bombed it in 2007. The report clarified that the Agency found approximately 73 tons of natural uranium in Syria, mostly in the form of fuel rods. It also stated that the targeted site may have been a nuclear reactor. The Board unanimously adopted a resolution welcoming Syria’s cooperation and affirming that Syria is no longer in non-compliance, after Damascus addressed all of the Agency’s questions and confirmed that it would retain the nuclear material within its territory.
