More than 2 tons of missing radioactive uranium have been found near a warehouse in southern Libya after its disappearance sparked nuclear safety concerns, according to military officials.
Khaled Mahjoub, a spokesperson for the self-styled Libyan National Army (LNA), said in a statement Thursday that the 10 barrels had been recovered, though a video he shared showed workers counting 18 containers.
Some of the blue-painted drums in the video displayed what appeared to be batch numbers.
However, the footage did not show the barrels being opened.
The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), the UN’s nuclear watchdog, said in a confidential statement to member states seen by Reuters that its inspectors had reported about 2.
