Sunday's Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, citing German intelligence sources, reports that Iraq has recently moved rockets toward the Kuwaiti border, in a new and serious violation of UN resolutions. The Ababil-100 rockets, which can carry conventional as well as chemical and biological warheads, threaten the US, British and German troops stationed in Kuwait.

This is the second report I've seen in the German press this weekend where German intelligence appears to have leaked information regarding the Iraqi threat, with the implication that the Schroeder government has been sitting on this information. [I translated the other report here]

The FAZ article closes with quotes from opposition figures criticizing the government for withholding the information and using "smoke screen tactics", and demanding that the Chancellor give a full report to the parliament on what he knows of the Iraqi threat.
