IAEA Overrides U.S., Approves Syria Nuclear Aid
[Reuters] Mark Heinrich - The UN atomic agency approved on Wednesday a contested Syrian bid for technical aid in planning a nuclear power plant, overcoming U.S.-led resistance while Damascus is under investigation for covert activity that could lead to atom bombs. A Nov. 19 IAEA report said a Syrian building demolished in an Israeli air raid last year bore similarities to a nuclear reactor and uranium particles, possibly remnants of pre-enriched nuclear fuel, had been found in the area.
