KOREA NORD ATOMKRAFTWERK YONGBYON
This photo taken in May 1992 shows an external view of the Yongbyon-1 nuclear power plant in North Korea. North Korea ratcheted up tension in the Korean peninsula's nuclear crisis 24 December, ignoring international condemnation by removing UN seals at a laboratory suspected of being used to produce weapons-grade material. A source close to the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) said late 23 December 2002 the North had started stripping the nuclear watchdog's seals and monitoring equipment from the laboratory at Yongbyon. The lab is suspected of having reprocessed fuel rods for weapons-grade plutonium before its activities were frozen under a 1994 arms control deal with the United States. (KEYSTONE/EPA PHOTO/IAEA/HO)
