LONDON (AP) -- Shipping company UPS has been barred from moving air cargo through some U.K. facilities because of security deficiencies, the British government said Friday.
The Department for Transport disclosed the action but gave no information on the security issues and didn't identify the locations involved.
It said that "following careful consideration, the department has restricted the number of sites in the U.K. at which UPS Ltd. are permitted to screen air cargo until it has satisfied current security requirements."
