How ISIS nearly stumbled on the ingredients for a ‘dirty bomb’ - The Washington Post

'They were still there, exactly as they were when the Islamic State seized the campus in 2014. '

'Why the Islamic State failed to take advantage of its windfall is not clear. '

'The group obtained documents showing that two different medical centers in Mosul had obtained cobalt-60 machines in the 1980s. '

'Finally, earlier this year, government officials entered the bullet-pocked campus building and peered into the storage room where the cobalt machines were kept. '

'In terrorists’ hands, it is the core ingredient of a “dirty bomb,” a weapon that could be used to spread radiation and panic. '
