1968 uranium hijacking linked to Israel inquiry
Former U S government nuclear expert Paul Leventhal says a shipload of natural uranium hijacked en route to Italy in 1968 reappeared under a new name and registry with no uranium on board. He says authorities concluded the material was unloaded in Israel, though Israeli officials deny knowledge of the interception. The affair surfaced amid talks on a non nuclear future and reporting by major papers.
