Report: IAEA to remove nuclear material from secret Syrian site after US-Israel deal...

The IAEA plans to remove yellowcake and nuclear residue from the clandestine Syrian Site 99, a facility dating to the Assad era. Israel had threatened additional strikes on the site and raised concerns that Syria, possibly aided by Turkey, might seek access to the material.

A US-brokered agreement led to the IAEA removal deal addressing these security risks.
