SUBJECT: WNINTEL -- SUSPECTED CHEMICAL STORAGE FACILITY
ACTION REQUIRED: PLS ADVISE IF INFORMATION SHOULD BE SUBMITTED AS INTEL.
1. RECEIVED A VERY UNUSUAL MESSAGE FROM OUR
AMBASSADOR TODAY. COM RETURNED FROM A MEETING
THIS MORNING WITH A HANDDRAWN MAP AND SOME COORDINATES
OF A LOCATION IN IRAQ THAT IS DESCRIBED AS A CHEMICAL WEAPONS
STORAGE FACILITY.
INDICATED THAT THEY HAD OBTAINED IT FROM SOMEONE IN THE IRANIAN
AIR FORCE OR AIR FORCE-RELATED INDUSTRY (IT WAS UNCLEAR TO
COM). ALTHOUGH THE CHAIN OF ACQUISITION SEEMS TENUOUS, ON THE
OFF CHANCE THAT IT IS USEFUL,
WE ARE FORWARDING IT.
2. WE PLOTTED THE COORDINATES AND MATCHED THE DRAWING ON
JOG (AIR) SERIES 1501, SHEET NH 38-7, EDITION 5. THE
COORDINATES ARE (3047N-4622E). ON THIS MAP, THOSE COORDINATES
MATCH UP TO A STORAGE AREA EAST OF JUWARIN, IRAQ. ACCORDING TO
INFORMATION THIS IS A CHEMICAL WEAPONS STORAGE AREA.
PLS ADVISE.
END OF MESSAGE
