The US Central Intelligence Agency between 2005 and 2006 bought hundreds of nerve-agent rockets from a secret seller in Iraq as part of an effort to keep chemical weapons out of the hands of terrorists, according to a New York Times investigation.

In an effort dubbed Operation Avarice, the CIA worked with American troops in Iraq to buy and destroy at least 400 Borak rockets. Saddam Hussein’s government manufactured the rockets in the 1980s, along with other chemical weapons.

It is not known how much the US government paid for the weapons or who the seller was, though the Times did report that the seller was eager to get rid of his stash.
