Radioactive materials 'used in Sydney'


Australian and American military forces reportedly used radioactive material during
war training games across Sydney.
The material was shifted around the city and its surrounding suburbs throughout May,
the Seven Network reported on Friday.
Black Hawk helicopters that circled the city and harbour were reportedly on a search
mission for hidden deposits of radioactive material.
The Australian Defence Force said its activities didn't endanger any people or
animals, and the amount used was "minimal".
But Greens MP Lee Rhiannon said the public had been deliberately "kept in the dark".
"That actually raises serious safety questions here," she told the network.
