Syrians are rebuilding bombed site: report (AFP)
Washington - Syrians are rebuilding a desert site bombarded by the Israeli military last September on hunchs it was called to put up a
atomic reactor
The New York Times
reported on its internet site late Friday.
The paper said a satellite picture let go of Friday by a private Colorado-based company, DigitalGlobe, shows a square edifice under building in Syria, on the easterly bank of the Euphrates River, north of the Iraqi border.
The land site appears to close resemble the original structure, the written report said. Nonetheless, the exposure taken from space on Wednesday, shows that the cap of the new edifice is overleapt instead of flat.
Israeli jets bombarded the land site in early September after Israeli and US intelligence service had reasonned out it was a partially constructed atomic reactor. The Syrians have refused the allegements.
Following the onset, the Syrians passed over the country clean, and restarted construction work, harmonizing to the report.
“We can presume its non a nuclear reactor,” The Times quotes David Albright, President of the Institute for Science and International Security in Washington as expression.
He appended that if international examiners eventually get to the land site, they will have a more hard time appearing for atomic evidence.
“The new edifice,” Albright is cited as locution, “covers whatsoever remained of the ruined one.”
