Tehran: Thousands
of Iranians will form a human chain around a nuclear site to
protect what they say is their country's "peaceful nuclear
programme", state media reported Monday.
The demonstration is being planned at the Uranium Conversion
Facility near Isfahan city, 350 km from Tehran, the Fars news
agency said.
It would be a protest against the recent International Atomic
Energy Agency (IAEA) report that said Iran's nuclear programme is
more ambitious than previously known.
Iran has dismissed the report, reiterating its claim that the
nuclear programme is for peaceful purposes like energy and
research.
