Key Points:

- The Wall Street Journal reported that Chinese-supplied high-resolution satellite images of Muwaffaq Salti Air Base in Jordan were linked to Iran's July 17 missile strike.
- U.S. officials described this as the clearest evidence that Chinese support for Iran has had deadly consequences for American forces, though they did not accuse Beijing of direct involvement.
- Trump stated he plans to address the issue with Chinese President Xi Jinping, who is scheduled to visit Washington on September 24, but noted that Xi has "behaved reasonably well."
- The White House has not yet commented on the report or the allegations against Chinese entities.
