 Allegations of Iraqi mobile weapons laboratories

The allegations of Iraqi mobile weapons laboratories refer to claims made by the U.S. government and some intelligence agencies prior to the 2003 invasion of Iraq. The accusations suggested that the Iraqi government, under President Saddam Hussein, possessed mobile biological weapons laboratories, which could be used to produce biological agents for warfare. These claims were prominently featured in presentations by U.S. officials, particularly by then-U.S. Secretary of State Colin Powell during a speech at the United Nations in February 2003.
