BAGHDAD (AFP) - The US military on Sunday said its troops had
found Chinese-made missiles which they believe were smuggled
into Iraq by groups in Iran in order to arm groups fighting US-led
forces.

"We have seen ordnance and weapons that come from other
places, but we assess that they have come through Iran," US
military spokesman Admiral Mark Fox told reporters.

"There are missiles that are actually manufactured in China that
we assess come through Iran as well."

Fox also alleged Iranian agents continue to smuggle Iranian made
armour piercing bombs -- explosively-formed penetrators (EFPs)
-- to Iraqi extremist groups across the country's long border.
