UK experts to help Iraq destroy chemical residues (BUSHRA JUHI, 7/30/12, Associated Press)
Britain will help the Iraqi government dispose of what's left of deposed Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein's chemical weapons, still stored in two bunkers in north of Baghdad, the British embassy in Baghdad announced Monday.The British Defense Ministry will start training Iraqi technical and medical workers this year, an embassy statement said. The teams will work to safely destroy remnants of munitions and chemical warfare agents left over from Saddam's regime. He was overthrown in 2003 following an American-led invasion.Saddam stored the chemical weapons near population centers so that he could access them quickly, despite the danger to his civilian population.
