NCRI – The National Council of Resistance of Iran, the "opposition group that first exposed Iran’s controversial nuclear-fuel program has given the United Nations’ nuclear watchdog details of what the group says is a working nuclear-warhead-development facility," the Wall Street Journal reported on Wednesday.<\/p>\n
"The facility at Khojir, a defense-ministry missile-research site on the southeast edge of Tehran, is developing a nuclear warhead for use on Iranian medium-range missiles, according to Mohammad Mohaddessin, foreign-affairs chief for the exiled National Council of Resistance of Iran", the report added.<\/p>\n

NCRI – The National Council of Resistance of Iran, the "opposition group that first exposed Iran’s controversial nuclear-fuel program has given the United Nations’ nuclear watchdog details of what the group says is a working nuclear-warhead-development facility," the Wall Street Journal reported on Wednesday.
"The facility at Khojir, a defense-ministry missile-research site on the southeast edge of Tehran, is developing a nuclear warhead for use on Iranian medium-range missiles, according to Mohammad Mohaddessin, foreign-affairs chief for the exiled National Council of Resistance of Iran", the report added.<\/p>\n
"He also said the NCRI has identified a guest house on a military compound near Khojir that the group says houses North Korean specialists working at the warhead facility. The information was finalized in recent weeks and is current, according to Mr. Mohaddessin."<\/p>\n
"Yesterday, Mr. Mohaddessin passed the information, which includes satellite images, to the International Atomic Energy Agency, the U.N.’s Vienna-based nuclear watchdog, and asked the agency to investigate," WSJ reported.<\/p>\n
"NCRI leaders said their latest effort to locate the alleged nuclear-warhead facility was triggered by the Dec. 3 release of a U.S. National Intelligence Estimate concluding that Iran halted its nuclear-weaponization efforts in 2003. The NCRI is eager to refute that finding," the report added.<\/p>\n
"The NCRI first identified Khojir as a missile facility in 2005. Iran’s medium-range Shahab 3 missile is based on North Korea’s Nodong-1 missile and is believed to have a range of as much as 1,240 miles.<\/p>\n
"The NCRI’s claim that a small facility on the military base is developing nuclear warheads is new, however. Also new is the claim that North Koreans are being bused to the facility. North Korea is in talks with the U.S. and other nations over its nuclear-weapons program. "<\/p>\n
"The commercial satellite images depict a system of heavy security within the Khojir site restricting access to the alleged nuclear-warhead facility. Visitors to the facility — which is known as ‘Eight-five hundred’ — have to leave their cars and drivers behind at the car park, according to Mr. Mohaddessin. A car is then sent to collect the visitors, who pass through two checkpoints to get onto a road that ends at a small group of buildings cut into the hills about 1.25 miles away," Wall Street Journal reported.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
