RMK/IRAQ -- CHEMICAL WEAPONS ACTIVITY
PROBABLE CHEMICAL WEAPONS-RELATED (CW) TRANSFER ACTIVITY WAS
UNDERWAY AT THE SAMARRA CW RESEARCH PRODUCTION AND STORAGE
FACILITY [ (b)(1) sec 1.3 (a)(4) ]. FIVE STAKE-BED TRUCKS, ONE
STAKE-BED TRAILER, ONE
DECONTAMINATION TRUCK, AND ONE SEDAN WERE ARRAYED IN A LOOSE
CIRCULAR FORMATION IN FRONT OF ONE OF THE THREE SUSPECTED
MUNITIONS FILLING BUILDINGS. AT LEAST FOUR OF THE STAKE-BED TRUCKS
AND THE STAKE-BED TRAILER WERE CARRYING CRATES THAT HAVE
PREVIOUSLY BEEN ASSOCIATED WITH THE SHIPMENT OF CW-ASSOCIATED
MATERIALS. THE POSITIONING OF THESE VEHICLES SUGGESTS THAT A
DELIVERY OF AGENTS FOR MUNITIONS PRODUCTION WAS TAKING PLACE. THE
PRESENCE OF THE NEARBY DECONTAMINATION TRUCK, A SAFETY MEASURE
TAKEN WHEN CW-ASSOCIATED MATERIAL HANDLING IS UNDERWAY, FURTHER
INDICATES THE HAZARDOUS NATURE OF THE MATERIALS PROBABLY BEING
DELIVERED. ADDITIONALLY, A SEDAN WAS OBSERVED, JUST INSIDE THE
GATE, EXITING THE COMPOUND.
ELSEWHERE IN THE FACILITY, A SECOND DECONTAMINATION TRUCK ARRIVED
SINCE 7 OCTOBER AT THE ENTRANCE TO THE CRUCIFORM BUNKER STORAGE
AREA SINCE 7 OCTOBER. AN APPARENTLY EMPTY STAKE-BED TRUCK AND A
SEDAN WERE ALSO JUST INSIDE THE ENTRANCE TO THIS COMPOUND AND WERE
POSITIONED TO EXIT.
[ (b)(2) ]
[ (b)(1) sec 1.3(a)(4) ]
ANOTHER EMPTY STAKE-BED TRUCK WAS ON A MAKESHIFT ROAD NEAR ONE OF
THE UNIDENTIFIED BUNKERED BUILDINGS IN THE SOUTHERNMOST PRODUCTION
AREA. UNIDENTIFIED MATERIAL WAS ON THE GROUND ALONGSIDE THE TRUCK.
FINALLY, FOUR TRACTOR-TRAILER TRUCKS WITH VAN-BODY TRAILERS WERE
AT AN INTERSECTION OF TWO ROADS NEAR THE HOUSING AREA ON THE
WESTERN EDGE OF THE FACILITY.
ADDITIONALLY, A SEDAN WAS OBSERVED EXITING THE FILLING COMPOUND.
