U.S. Report Claims N.Korea Passing WMD Tech to Syria via Iran

A new U.S. congressional report claims North Korea is transferring weapons technology to Syria through Iran.

In the report, the Congressional Research Service, an entity that works exclusively for the U.S. Congress, revealed that Iran was assisting in the procurement of weapons of mass destruction-related technology by providing North Korea with a platform for such trade with Syria.

The report however does not offer further details on the alleged interaction.
