Chinese Embassy in UK dismisses FT report alleging Iran used Chinese satellite to monitor US bases in Middle East

The report is not true and this is a war that should not have happened in the first place, and its origins are clear to all. China firmly opposes attempts by some to fabricate rumors and link China to the conflict, the spokesperson of the Chinese Embassy in the UK said in a statement issued on Friday morning Beijing time in response to a Financial Times report alleging that during the recent conflict, Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps used a "spy satellite" built and launched by a Chinese company to monitor US military bases and key civilian infrastructure in the Middle East.
