Spain asks US to clean up site of 1966 nuclear accident
Fox News
Spain is asking the U.S. to clean up a nuclear site where a U.S. bomber and a refueling plane crashed mid-air and dropped four hydrogen bombs above southern Spain.
The Foreign Ministry said there would be no more details given on the petition until there is an official reply from the U.S.
Spain and the U.S. signed a statement of intent in 2015 to negotiate a binding agreement to further restore and clear up the Palomares site and arrange for the disposal of the contaminated soil at an appropriate site in the U.S. But for several reasons no agreement was ever signed.
