UN investigators check weapons seized by US Navy ship

None

UN investigators have boarded a US military ship in an effort to determine if more than 2,500 assault rifles seized by the American ship off the coast of Yemen came from Iran.

 

The US Navy says the weapons confiscated by the guided-missile destroyer USS Jason Dunham in late August were likely headed from Somalia to Yemen. But it's unclear where the AK-47s were manufactured and put on the smuggling route.
