Three Chinese companies used artificial intelligence to pinpoint American fighter jets, fuel depots, and radar installations across the Middle East, then published the findings on open platforms accessible to anyone, including Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC).
The US Department of State sanctioned four entities on 8 May, including these three Chinese firms, for providing satellite imagery and geospatial intelligence that enabled Iranian military strikes against American forces during Operation Epic Fury. The sanctioned companies are Meentropy Technology, operating as MizarVision, Beijing-based The Earth Eye, and Chang Guang Satellite Technology.
