US Links Chinese Satellite Imagery to Iranian Strike on Jordan Base

US intelligence reportedly links Chinese satellite imagery to an Iranian strike that killed three US soldiers at a base in Jordan. This claim, primarily from The Wall Street Journal and unconfirmed by official US sources, suggests potential Chinese commercial or state-linked involvement in enabling a hostile act against US forces. The strength of evidence and its diplomatic impact remain uncertain.
