Trump dismisses report China gave Iran intel before US base attack

US President Donald Trump has downplayed a report that Chinese entities supplied Iran with satellite images of a US base in Jordan before a deadly attack. The reports in question were dismissed by Trump, according to outlets Punch Nigeria and Punch, which both carried the same story.

Further details on the matter were not provided in the reports, but Tempo.co English also confirmed that Trump downplayed the reports of Chinese entities giving Iran satellite imagery before the strike on the military base in Jordan.

There was also mention of unrelated developments in the region, with The Korea Times discussing South Korea's potential role in securing the Strait of Hormuz amid rising tensions.
