UNMOVIC IAEA Press Statement on Inspection Activities in Iraq

28 February

An UNMOVIC biological team returned to the Al Aziziyah Airfield and Firing Range and observed further digging in search of R-400 aerial bombs and bomb fragments that Iraq claims were filled with biological agents. Additional fragments of R-400 bombs were identified. Another biological team conducted an inspection of the Mesopotania State Company for Seeds at the Djerf al Naddaf site in southeast Baghdad.

An UNMOVIC missile team traveled to the Al Harith Missile Maintenance Workshop, where missile maintenance and repairs on air defense missile systems are performed. The purpose of the inspection was to apply tags to the missiles, which had undergone maintenance, and to remove tags from the missiles scheduled for maintenance.

One IAEA team conducted a car-borne radiation survey in an area 10km north of Baghdad.
