China has firmly rejected reports claiming it plans to provide Iran with 400 missile launchers, calling the allegations "not true and groundless." During a regular press briefing, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Mao Ning dismissed the reports and reiterated that Beijing has consistently supported peace and de-escalation in regional conflicts. The denial comes amid speculation over growing military cooperation between China and Iran following months of heightened tensions involving Tehran, the United States and Israel. As questions continue to swirl over the strategic partnership between Beijing and Tehran, China's latest statement is likely to intensify the geopolitical debate surrounding the Middle East and global security.
