Iraq's declaration Arrived in Cyprus

World | December 8, 2002, Sunday // 00:00

A U.N. plane carrying Iraq's declaration on weapons of mass destruction arrived in Cyprus from the Iraqi capital on Sunday morning. This is the first stop in the journey to deliver the nearly 12,000-page report to top U.N. officials. Iraq's declaration left Baghdad for Vienna and New York, where they are expected to arrive later on Sunday. Iraq handed its weapons declaration to U.N. inspectors in Baghdad on Saturday one day ahead of a U.N. deadline as Iraqi President Saddam Hussein apologized for invading Kuwait in 1990. On Sunday, U.N. inspectors continued their hunt for banned weapons at a geological survey facility in Baghdad and a pesticide factory to the northwest.
