CATHERINE CALLAWAY, CNN ANCHOR: Our Rym Brahimi is standing by in the Iraqi capital in Baghdad, where that plane will soon be heading.
Rym -- what's the latest from there?

RYM BRAHIMI, CNN CORRESPONDENT: Well, Catherine, indeed, we're expecting that plane to arrive in just about three hours from now. The inspectors that are on their way -- they're about 12 inspectors from UNMOVIC and then 6 of them from the IAEA. So, they'll be both biological, chemical and nuclear experts on their way here. They're going to be the first teams, but 1 of 4, we understand, that are going to come in, trickle into Iraq in the next days and weeks and possibly months.

Now, what they're going to be looking at first are all of the sites that were being monitored until 1998, the ones that still have surveillance cameras. Meanwhile, of course, their headquarters here just before these inspectors arrived was still busy, preparing everything, refurbishing the last-minute headquarters -- Catherine.

CALLAWAY: All right, Rym, we'll be back with you in just a few minutes -- That's Rym Brahimi standing by for us there in Baghdad.
