Alleged Iran Nuke Site Being Watched
(AP) George Jahn - Satellite surveillance has shown an increase in activity at an Iranian site suspected of links to alleged secret work on nuclear weapons, officials say. One official cited intelligence saying it appeared Tehran is trying to cover its tracks by sanitizing the site and removing any evidence of nuclear research and development. Their focus is on a structure believed to be housing a large metal chamber at a military site at Parchin, southwest of Tehran, that a Nov. 8 IAEA report described as being used for nuclear-related explosives testing. Recent satellite imagery shows increased activity, including an unusual number of vehicles arriving and leaving.
