US intelligence indicates China is preparing to deliver air defense systems to Iran in the coming weeks, CNN reported on Saturday, citing sources familiar with the assessments.
The report said Beijing was preparing to transfer shoulder-fired air defense systems and was working to route shipments through third countries to conceal their origin.
China’s embassy in Washington denied the report, saying “China has never provided weapons to any party to the conflict” and calling the information “untrue.” https://iranintl.com/en/202604113605
