Original Note:
Misleading claim. IAEA assessed Depleted Uranium DU environmental & health impacts; found no acute risk attributed to DU external exposure; major risk is DU dust when bombs explode. Health effects appear minor, i.e. a fraction of those expected from natural radiation. https://www.iaea.org/sites/default/files/properties.pdf
