UN pulls more than 30 inspectors out of Iraq The United Nations says it has pulled out more than 30 weapons inspectors throughout Iraq. But the UN is refusing to confirm if the pull-out is part of an evacuation plan ahead of possible war. The UN says about 70 weapons inspectors remain in Iraq, down from a high of more than 100. A UN spokesman has refused to say whether the fall in staff numbers has anything to do with fears about a US-led war. It is understood the UN is ready to evacuate its remaining weapons inspectors within three hours of being ordered to pull out of Baghdad. UN arms experts have now destroyed half of Iraq's stock of banned Al Samoud missiles, as well as nine warheads and a rocket launcher. Meanwhile, Russia has flown all its nationals out of Iraq apart from 70 diplomats and specialist workers. abc.net.au
