Iranian proxy militants are using unmanned armed vehicles (UAV) and recent studies show that these vehicles and technologies are sold by China to Iran. Iraq, Syria, Lebanon and Yemen are also being equipped with arms and artilleries, and everything is being supplied by China. The skies of Iraq, Syria, Lebanon and Yemen are full of China-made surveillance and armed drones. The Iranian Guard Corps have supplied these technologies and weapons to other allies in the Middle East.
Drones, especially those supplied by China, have become mainstays in the arsenals of Iran-backed terror organizations. In 2019, the Iranian-backed Houthis in Yemen deployed drones to attack Saudi oil production sites and later it was found that those were supplied by China through Iran. Two years later, Houthi drones targeted an oil ship owned by Japan and managed by Israel near Oman. In August 2022, terrorists supported by Iran conducted a drone attack on US military outposts in southeast Syria.
Beijing provides modern satellite navigation and communication technology to Iran to improve drone performance. China’s BeiDou satellite navigation system, which competes with the U.S. The GPS is the foundation of the drones’ navigation system.
China is leveraging the tension rising between Saudi and Iran. The Middle East has always been critical for world peace and China is exchanging everything that comprises for the peace of the planet.
