On Sunday aboard Air Force One, US President Donald Trump dismissed a recent report claiming that Chinese entities provided satellite images of a base in Jordan to Iran prior to a deadly attack that killed three US troops in July.

The Wall Street Journal had previously cited unnamed US officials regarding the alleged intelligence acquisition by Iran from Chinese sources before the airstrike took place.
