U.S. State Department spokeswoman Tammy Bruce confirmed on Thursday that the Chinese satellite company, Chang Guang Satellite Technology, is “directly” helping the Yemen-based Houthi terrorists target U.S. warships and interests in the Red Sea.

“We can confirm the reporting that Chang Guang Satellite Technology Company Limited is directly supporting Iran-backed Houthi terrorist attacks on U.S. interests,” said Bruce, during a press briefing.

“China consistently attempts … to frame itself as a global peacemaker … however, it is clear that Beijing and China-based companies provide key economic and technical support to regimes like Russia, North Korea and Iran and its proxies,” she added.

Bruce confirmed an earlier report from The Financial Times, which cited unnamed sources claiming that a Chinese company is providing satellite imaging information to help the Houthi terrorists target attacks on civilian ships and U.S. military vessels.

Bruce called the Chinese company’s support for the Houthis “unacceptable,” but did not indicate how the U.S. would respond to the Chinese provocation.

U.S. officials have raised the issue with China, but its Chinese Communist Party (CCP)-led government has done nothing to stop the Houthis from using Chinese satellite intelligence in their attacks.

Chang Guang, tightly connected with the Chinese government and the People’s Liberation Army (PLA), and is likely only aiding the Houthis with the permission of the People Republic of China (PRC) regime. The company also faced U.S. scrutiny in 2023 following allegations that the company was providing satellite imagery to Russia’s Wagner Group, a Russian paramilitary company involved in the invasion of Ukraine.

The Houthis receive significant support from the Iranian regime and are often considered one of the nation’s terrorist proxies.

Since taking office, President Donald Trump has escalated the most recent military campaign against the Houthis, started under former President Joe Biden, in response to the group’s attacks on commercial vessels in the Red Sea.

    It was Bill Clinton who let the Chinese be sold the missile guidance technology that allowed those satellites to be put into orbit in the first place — Clinton needed money for his re-election campaign.
