VIENNA/PARIS - Iran briefly held an inspector working for the UN nuclear watchdog in the Islamic Republic and seized her travel documents, diplomats familiar with the agency's work said on Wednesday , with some describing it as harassment.

The International Atomic Energy Agency is also in transition, with a new chief taking over next month. Three diplomats familiar with the agency's work said the female inspector had her travel documents taken, and two said she was briefly held while working in Iran. The other matter due to be discussed on Thursday is Iran's less than full cooperation with the IAEA in explaining how traces of uranium were found at a site in Teheran that Israel has called a"secret atomic warehouse", diplomats said.
