    London Weekly: Hizballah Has Chemical Warheads; Israeli Source: It Won't Dare

    Sunday, February 2, 2003

    122-mm missiles, armed with chemical warheads, have been shipped to Hizballah, according to London-based Foreign Report, which cites military intelligence sources. The sources added that disarmed missiles of the same type were found by UN inspectors in Iraq. According to an unconfirmed report, the missiles that reached Lebanon had come from Iraq.

    An Israeli defense source told Foreign Report that "Hizballah won't dare use chemical weapons against northern Israel, but the fact they have long-range missiles with chemical warheads will become a significant deterrent factor when Israeli intervention is considered."
