Australian ship found with NKorean weapons aboard
Updated
Australia has admitted that weapons, including rocket propelled grenades being transported from North Korea, have been found on an Australian-owned ship bound for Iran.
The arms were falsely labelled "machine parts" while they were being carried on ANL Australia when it was seized in the waters off the United Arab Emirates. The capture marks the first time a nation has acted on UN sanctions to stop North Korea's arms proliferation.
