China said to be 'preparing' weapons for Iran

 The United States intelligence indicates China is preparing to deliver new air defense systems to Iran in the next weeks, CNN reported, citing three people familiar with recent intelligence assessments.

The shipments would include shoulder-fired anti-air missiles and could be routed through third countries to hide their origin, according to two of the sources.

The reported plans come days after a ceasefire paused fighting between the US and Iran, and follow earlier statements from Iranian officials that Tehran may allow limited oil transit through the Strait of Hormuz only if shipments are paid in Chinese yuan.
