Nuclear arms reportedly found in Iraq

BAGHDAD, July 21 (UPI) -- Iraqi security reportedly discovered three 
missiles carrying nuclear heads concealed in a concrete trench 
northwest of Baghdad, official sources said Wednesday.

The official daily al-Sabah quoted the sources as saying the missiles 
were discovered in trenches near the city of Tikrit, the hometown of 
ousted Iraqi President Saddam Hussein.

"The three missiles were discovered by chance when the Iraqi security 
forces captured former Baath party official Khoder al-Douri who 
revealed during interrogation the location of the missiles saying they 
carried nuclear heads," the sources said.

They pointed out that the missiles were actually discovered in the 
trenches lying under six meters of concrete and designed in a way to 
unable sophisticated sensors from discovering nuclear radiation.

The sources said al-Douri, who is related to former Vice Chairman of the 
Iraq Revolution Council and Saddam's right-hand man Izzat Ibrahim 
al-Douri, was captured after Iraqi police intercepted an e-mail message 
in which he set a meeting with another former Baath official.

The report could not be authenticated by the interior ministry or the 
national security department, but the paper noted Iraqi Foreign 
Minister Hoshiar Zibari made a surprise request recently to Mohammed 
el-Baradei, head of the International Atomic Energy Agency, to resume 
inspections for weapons of mass destruction in Iraq.
