Report: Suspected nuclear shipment prompted IAF raid over Syria Ynet Israel News
Prominent US expert on Middle East tells Washington Post IAF carried out raid over Syria three days after North Korean shipment arrived at country’s port carrying material labeled as cement.
An IAF raid over Syria allegedly occurred three days after the country received a shipment of material from North Korea labeled as cement, according to a senior US expert on the Middle East, as reported in the Washington Post Saturday.
The expert, who spoke to the Washington Post on the condition of anonymity to avoid compromising his sources, said the attack seemingly targeted a northern Syrian facility that was labeled an agricultural research center, close to the Turkish border.
According to the expert, Israel has kept a close eye on the facility, believing that Syria was using it to extract uranium from phosphates.
It was not clear what the ship arriving from North Korea was actually carrying, although Israeli sources largely believed it was delivering nuclear equipment, the expert told the Washington Post.
The ship arrived at the Syrian port of Tartus on September 3; the attack supposedly occurred on September 6.
