WASHINGTON: Researchers eye Pakistan's third plutonium reactor
Updated
Researchers say Pakistan appears to be building a third plutonium production reactor at its Khushab nuclear site in Punjab in order to build more powerful atomic bombs. The Washington-based Institute for Science and International Security says the construction was seen on commercial satellite imagery. A spokesman for the research group says Pakistan may have concluded that it needs to improve the quality of its nuclear arsenal and build a new generation of lighter, more powerful weapons.
