Insider sources suggest China was caught off guard by the U.S.–Israeli strike that killed Iran’s Islamic leader. We examine what Beijing expected from the operation and how its calculations were different from reality.
Israel’s air force struck the building of the Iranian body in charge of appointing the supreme leader. We hear from an expert who says the move could be rattling Chinese Communist Party (CCP) leader Xi Jinping.
