China has sent Iran around 1,300 shipments of missile and drone parts this year through the end of June, as the Islamic Republic faced a brutal US-Israeli campaign against it, the Wall Street Journal (WSJ) reported on 23 September.

It carried a shipment for the Iranian Defense Ministry that included electronic components used to make parts for drones and missile guidance systems.
Another Chinese shipment two days later carried drone parts for Iran, worth more than $6 million, according to WSJ.
