US intelligence suggests China may supply Iran with new air defense systems in the coming weeks, even as a delicate ceasefire with Washington remains in place, CNN reported on Saturday citing sources familiar with recent assessments.
The report claimed that Iran may be taking advantage of the ceasefire to restock certain weapons systems, with assistance from key international partners.
According to the report, there are signs that Beijing is attempting to channel these shipments through third countries to conceal their true origin.
The systems in question are shoulder-launched anti-aircraft missiles, known as MANPADS.
These weapons posed an asymmetric threat to low-flying US military aircraft during the five-week conflict and could do so again if the ceasefire collapses.
A spokesperson for the Chinese embassy in Washington said: “China has never provided weapons to any party to the conflict; the information in question is untrue.”
“As a responsible major country, China consistently fulfills its international obligations. We urge the US side to refrain from making baseless allegations, maliciously drawing connections, and engaging in sensationalism; we hope that relevant parties will do more to help de-escalate tensions.”
A two-week ceasefire took effect on Wednesday, after weeks of fighting since Feb. 28, when the US and Israel initiated war on Iran.
Nearly 3,000 Iranians have been killed according to the country’s authorities, while the conflict also left at least 13 US servicemen dead and dozens of others wounded, and disrupted the Strait of Hormuz, a key route for oil shipping.

Why wouldn’t China re-arm Iran? The US is re-arming Israel. China understands this war is just another step in the Wolfowitz Doctrine to maintain US global hegemony. China is being attacked through Iran, just as Russia is being attacked through Ukraine.

A black migrant has been jailed for life for fatally punching a deaf woman with learning difficulties in the neck and abandoning her lying in the street.
Duane Owusu, 36, forced Zahwa Mukhtar out of an overcrowded Mercedes car and killed her with a single savage blow after a rave in east London.
Rather than calling for help, Owusu told his friends “no one cares about her” before leaving Mukhtar on the pavement with a fatal head injury at 4.30am.
At the Old Bailey, Owusu was found guilty of murdering Miss Mukhtar, 27, who had worked at the Young Vic theatre as a finance assistant and needed a lift
Judge Richard Marks KC handed Owusu a life sentence with a minimum term of 16 years and six months in jail.
why are these people in our country ?
Of course Iran will use the cease fire to restock certain weapons. What would anyone expect? And of course USA wont just be sitting there looking at their now limited stockpile of weapons neither. They will be getting ready for more conflict too.
I’m just glad Trump will do anything to open the strait again so I get my petrol. …. No, I don’t think he’s all that sincere about looking after our wee country in the south pacific.
