Libya had undeclared chemical weapon stockpile (AP)

AMSTERDAM ? The organization that oversees a global ban on chemical weapons says a team of its inspectors has confirmed that former Libyan dictator Moammar Gadhafi had an undeclared stockpile the weapons.

The Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons says inspectors who visited Libya this week found sulfur mustard and artillery shells "which they determined are chemical munitions."

Libya's new rulers told the Hague-based organization about the previously unknown stockpile last year after toppling Gadhafi from power.

The organization said in a statement Friday the chemical weapons are stored at the Ruwagha depot in southeastern Libya together with chemical weapons that Gadhafi had declared to international authorities.
