North Korea Resumes Military Aid to Syria
(Ynet News) Yitzhak Benhorin - North Korea has renewed its supply of sensitive military technology to Damascus, the Japanese business newspaper Nikkei reported Tuesday. Western intelligence sources said North Korea is aiding Syria in the production of maraging steel, which is extremely durable at high heats and pressure, and is typically used in missile skins, ballistic warheads, and gas centrifuges critical in the uranium enrichment process. A production line for the material was built in Homs in northern Syria, and North Korean experts are training Syrian engineers how to produce the specialized steel.
