Dirty bomb threat? IAEA set to remove nuclear material from secret Syrian site after US-brokered deal: Report
Syria's Atomic Energy Commission announced that an International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) delegation will visit to declare "significant progress" on a deal to remove nuclear material from the secret Site 99. This material, linked to Bashar al-Assad's nuclear program, includes yellowcake uranium. The IAEA's action follows U.S. and Israeli concerns about the site's security after Assad's government weakened.
