Iran says it has transferred 11 tons of heavy water to Oman

The head of Iran's nuclear program, Ali Akbar Salehi, was quoted by official media Tuesday as saying that 11 tons of heavy water, which is used to produce plutonium, was transferred to Oman.  A recent report from the UN's International Atomic Energy Agency said that Iran exceeded its heavy water limit by 100 kilograms (220 pounds) over the 130 metric tons allowed under last year's nuclear agreement, a small but significant violation.
