Officials wary of inspectors
TEHRAN -- Iranian officials vowed to carefully watch for any attempted espionage by international inspectors, who yesterday were visiting a military complex that the United States believes could be involved in nuclear weapons research.
Inspectors from the International Atomic Energy Agency, the U.N. nuclear watchdog agency, arrived in Iran on Wednesday.
Iran has said it will allow U.N. nuclear experts to take environmental samples from landscaped areas outside the military complex's ammunition production workshops but it won't allow them to inspect military equipment.

The Black Hawk helicopter, used in the U.S.-funded anti-drug effort called Plan Colombia, went down just after midnight near the village of Manguipayan, 340 miles southwest of the capital, Bogota.
