Suspected nuclear material bound for regime intercepted

NCRI – South Korea and Singapore have intercepted suspected nuclear and weapons materials bound for the Iranian regime that breach UN sanctions, diplomats told AFP on Thursday.

The two seizures were made in the past six months but only revealed now, AFP said.

“South Korea authorities found more than 400 suspicious tubes in a jet cargo at Seoul airport in December,” one diplomat told AFP.

“In September, aluminium powder that can be used for rockets was found on a ship in Singapore harbor,” the diplomat added.

In each case the product was destined for Iran.
