Intelligence reports indicate that Chinese entities provided Iran with satellite imagery of a U.S. military base in Jordan. The data was reportedly supplied to Iran both before and after a drone strike that resulted in the deaths of three U.S. service members. The intelligence suggests the imagery was utilized by Iranian forces to target the installation.

The acquisition of these images by Iran from Chinese sources has raised concerns regarding potential geopolitical repercussions. Analysts suggest that the involvement of Chinese entities in facilitating the targeting of U.S. personnel could further strain diplomatic relations between Washington and Beijing.
