China Gives Iran Missile Boost Amid Tensions With US

China is boosting Iran in rebuilding its missile program, despite Western sanctions, according to a new report by CNN citing European intelligence sources.

Reports have indicated that Iran is seeking to rebuild its missile program after Israel attacked missile and nuclear facilities in a 12-day war in June, during which the United States also bombed three of its major nuclear facilities. Iran has turned to longtime allies China and Russia in the aftermath of the war and to mitigate the results of Western sanctions that followed, amid failure to negotiate new nuclear agreements.
