While there is a tremendous distrust and hostility to China in the US, and here on Quora, there is one fact worth pointing out.
While China supports Iran in the conflict, it has held back on releasing satellite images showing damage to US air and logistics bases, and on US Navy ships in the region. China has private-sector and government reconnaissance satellites with high resolution which can show the damage to the US bases and Israeli bases, but it has held back.
The reason? Releasing them would embarrass the US by contradicting official statements, and would make China the target of US anger for no benefit to China.
Better to say nothing, show nothing, and sit on the images.
