First IAEA inspection team leaves DPRK

The first team of UN inspectors left here for Beijing Tuesday after wrapping up a two-week inspection of the nuclear facilities at Yongbyon in the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK).


    "We just completed the job which was planned and we have had full cooperation with the DPRK authorities," Adel Tolba, head of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA)'s inspection team, told Xinhua at the airport.


    As for the installation of monitoring equipment at Yongbyon nuclear facilities, he said the "evaluation and the assessment" of that equipment will be done at the IAEA headquarters in Vienna.


    The first inspection team arrived in Pyongyang on July 14 and then went to Yongbyon to verify and monitor the shutdown of the nuclear facilities there.


    On July 18, IAEA chief Mohamed ElBaradei said the DPRK had shutdown all of its five nuclear facilities.


    Following the first team, the second IAEA team arrived in the DPRK Saturday and now is at Yongbyon for another two weeks of inspection work.
