VIENNA - The United Nations nuclear watchdog is training Chinese security personnel to respond to any radiological attack during the Olympic Games in Beijing in August, officials said on Friday.
A radiological attack is one involving a release of radioactivity -- for example through a "dirty bomb" in which radioactive material is packed around conventional explosives and scattered when the device goes off.
