Israeli intelligence operations inside Iran have alarmed Beijing, which saw them as a new model of intelligence warfare, prompting deeper technological, security, and strategic cooperation with Tehran.

Στις 24 Ιανουαρίου τα μέσα ενημέρωσης της Κίνας ανακοίνωσαν την απομάκρυνση του ανώτερου στρατιωτικού της χώρας Zhang Youxia, όπως και του στρατηγού Liu Zhenli, από την Κεντρική Στρατιωτική Επιτροπή (ΚΣΕ).
