As always, go to foreign sources to get more complete information (the BBC in this case):
- Chemical warheads seized in Iraq
- United Nations weapons inspectors in Iraq say they have found nearly a dozen empty chemical warheads while searching an ammunition storage depot.
- Eleven warheads which could be used to carry chemical warfare agents were found at the Ukhaider depot and are currently being examined by experts, a UN spokesman said.
- "The warheads were in excellent condition and were similar to ones imported by Iraq during the late 1980s," said Hiro Ueki.
- He did not elaborate on the significance of the find, but the UN office in Baghdad has since told the BBC that they did not consider the discovery to be a "smoking gun" at the present time.
