UN Inspectors' Iraq report due today

Iraq’s arms declaration is incomplete, its scientists are not fully co-operating with inspections and Baghdad is obstructing the use of a U-2 plane which could be helpful in the hunt for weapons of mass destruction, inspectors are expected to tell the Security Council in a toughly worded report today.

After two months on the job, the chief weapons inspectors will not be able to confirm claims by the Bush administration that Iraq is rearming, according to UN officials.
