http://www.swissinfo.org/sen/swissinfo.html?siteSect=143&sid=5443723JERUSALEM (Reuters) - Israel has released the first video footage of its Dimona nuclear plant, a television station
said on Monday, in an apparent attempt to promote a positive image of what experts believe to be an atomic bomb
factory.
The first published images of Dimona, snapped secretly by technician turned activist Mordechai Vanunu in the 1980s,
led experts to conclude that the Jewish state had nuclear bombs.
Channel 10 television said its tape of the plant, to be aired on Friday, showed technicians in various non-military
activities -- mingling on the lawn, inspecting lab equipment and lecturing at an "atomic school" for disadvantaged
youths.
The privately owned station did not say how it obtained the footage, but noted that it had been cleared by military
censors who had for decades banned journalists from the desert site.
