Russia has secret chem weapons store- Norway paper Updated 2:20 PM ET July 15, 1999 OSLO (Reuters) - For the last 15 years Russia has been operating a secret plant for producing and storing deadly chemical weapons just east of Murmansk on the Kola peninsula, the Norwegian daily Verdens Gang said Thursday. After a two-year search Verdens Gang said it had uncovered the site in a forest a mile from Murmansk in northeastern Russia. It published a photograph showing hundreds of grey-white plastic barrels stacked in the open air in a military compound. Nearby lay rows of missiles piled high and mounds of explosives. Another picture showed an aerial view of a cluster of barrack-type buildings which it said were stores for chemical weapons, arms and anti-toxins. "An explosion at this plant could lead to an environmental catastrophe in the Nordic region. There would be damage up to 150 miles away," Verdens Gang said. (cont) news.excite.com
