Sabha, Libya (CNN) -- A military site containing what appears to be radioactive material has been uncovered by revolutionary forces near the southern Libyan city of Sabha.
Military forces loyal to the country's National Transitional Council took a CNN crew Thursday to the site, not far from Sabha in the Sahara desert. The crew saw two large warehouses there, one containing thousands of blue barrels, some marked with tape saying "radioactive," and several plastic bags of yellow powder sealed with the same tape.
The material has not been confirmed as being radioactive, but the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), the United Nations' nuclear watchdog agency, confirmed Thursday that the Libyan government had yellowcake stored near Sabha.
Yellowcake is processed uranium ore that can, after extensive refining, be used to produce enriched uranium for nuclear purposes
I wonder if the west will blame Pakistan for the material just like it blames us for all things evil and it may sound far fetched eventually attack us for illegal nuclear exports to ''rouge country''............
