The board of governors of the International Atomic Energy Agency, the atoms-for peace agency of the United Nations, voted here yesterday to provide substantial help to Israel’s nuclear research projects. The agency board voted to provide to Israel $250, 000 worth of equipment for nuclear radiation detection at Israel’s nuclear reactor south of Tel Aviv.
In addition, the IAEA will send to Israel an expert in the design of nuclear reactors, who will work with Israel’s Department of Nuclear Science at Technion, Israel Institute of Technology at Haifa.
