China has been helping Iran in its war against the US and Israel, Iran’s foreign minister boasted Saturday — days after confirming his country has also been aided by Russia.
“Russia and China are our strategy partners, and we have had close cooperation in the past, which is still continues [sic], and that includes military cooperation as well,” Iran Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi told MS Now.
The two American adversaries have been accused of providing the Islamic Republic with intelligence regarding the locations of US military assets during Operation Epic Fury.
The foreign minister revealed China’s involvement in the war just days after he said that Russia’s involvement in the war was “no secret.”
“A military cooperation between Iran and Russia is not something new. It’s not a secret,” Araghchi told NBC’s “Meet the Press” on Sunday.
Aragachi said that he would not provide details as to the nature of military help Iran is receiving from China and Russia, but described the working relationship as “good cooperation.”
News of Russia’s involvement flies in the face of assurances made by Kremlin officials to US diplomatic leaders.
Ambassador Steve Witkoff told CNBC that Russian leaders had promised President Trump that they were not providing intelligence to Russia during a phone call Monday.
“I can tell you that yesterday, on the call with [President Trump], the Russians said they have not been sharing… so, we can take them at their word, but they did say that,” Witkoff told CNBC.

Zero percent chance this is real, just cope boasting from Iran’s government
China is between a rock and a hard place.
Trump can crash China’s economy by shutting off trade with China and/or shutting off China’s oil imports.
China is already having problems. The question is how far to their tipping point?
Tehran Tim.
Is Baghdad Bob still with us?
it sure hasnt helped much...US has yet to lose a single aircraft, after thousands of sorties. Israel too.
China Deploys 30,000-Ton Liaowang-1 “Floating Supercomputer” to Gulf of Oman — PLAN Intelligence Ship Now Watching U.S.–Israel–Iran War From 6,000km Sensor Bubble
China’s next-generation Liaowang-1 signals-intelligence vessel, escorted by PLAN Type 055 and Type 052D destroyers, has taken position near the Strait of Hormuz with a 6,000-kilometre surveillance envelope capable of tracking 1,200 missiles and aircraft across the escalating U.S.–Israel–Iran conflict theatre.
All the military hardware and training Iran received from China and Russia has been found wanting. It’s quite sobering for the Chinese and Russians no doubt.
A Chinese company that specialises in generating geospatial intelligence is actively tracking American military aircraft and ships involved in ongoing operations against Iran, highlighting the vulnerability of conventional armed forces to observation from satellites in low Earth orbit.
Shanghai-headquartered MizarVision has been posting satellite photos of US military activity throughout the past week to social media, including the movement of naval vessels and the location of both combat and support aircraft.
A number of the facilities and assets posted by MizarVision were subsequently targeted by Iran in missile and drone strikes
BUT Russia is not our enemy...
Thanks free traitors. Regardless of the effectiveness of the help the Chicoms are giving Iran, they are doing it with OUR money thanks to you.
I believe this is factually correct:
“China has been helping Iran in its war against the US and Israel, Iran’s foreign minister boasted Saturday — days after confirming his country has also been aided by Russia. “Russia and China are our strategy partners, and we have had close cooperation in the past, which is still continues [sic], and that includes military cooperation as well,”
This crusade against free trade makes no sense, at least strategically.
The peak of Britain’s global supremacy was during its phase of free trade from 1840 on.
Well if this is true it shows just how bad China and Russia intelligence is. And confirms their militaries are paper tigers. China is once again the sick man of Asia lol hah. To all the Chinese spies reading this, good job!
Free trade in itself is fine, if there is a level playing field. The problem is the one sided trade deals that gutted our working class and tax base, and made us dependent on foreign slave labor.
As for the Chicoms, we knew their ambitions, and we knew that they had stolen our military technology during the Clinton years, yet we sent our manufacturing, tax base, and technology over there for the false promise of saving a few pennies on communist made paint brushes. What's worse, we sold out our own kids and Vets to get those cheaper prices. I hope you can see the problem with that.
Plus, a handful of Temu Radar air defense systems.
[The peak of Britain’s global supremacy was during its phase of free trade from 1840 on.]
During the Opium Wars of 1839-42 and 1856-60?
Given how badly it’s going for Iran, this is hardly and endorsement of China and Russia’s help.
My guess is that the Iranian regime is lying and are getting their asses kicked. They are trying everything they can to survive, including attempting to drag their “allies” into the fight. The regime is fighting a two front war— they have to fight the US/Israel and also their own people. Their strongest and only effective weapon to date is their propaganda machine and army of useful idiots on the left AND right (looking at you, Tucker Carlson) parroting their talking points.
