U.N. inspectors find traces of uranium at second Syrian site

U.N. inspectors probing allegations of a clandestine nuclear program in Syria have discovered traces of uranium at a second location, fueling concerns among nuclear experts that the country was secretly planning to build nuclear weapons. The most recent discovery of uranium particles "implies at least some kind of experimentation" by Syria, said David Albright of the Ploughshares-funded Institute for Science and International Security. In the worst case, he said, they could indicate that Syria "has not abandoned its ambition" to explore nuclear weapons.
