Chinese military scientists have developed an algorithm to identify electronic warfare units using civil aviation flight data, according to a report. The researchers identified two sources of interference near Israel during the conflict with Iran. The locations were estimated to be near Haifa, with positioning errors between 10.9 kilometers and an unspecified distance. The team did not explain why they focused on the Israeli military.

The findings come amid heightened tensions between Israel and Iran, with both sides engaging in military activities. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has repeatedly called for the Iranian regime to be removed, though he emphasized that the regime is unlikely to fall before Israeli elections. During the same period, one ship was taken down by a projectile while another sank after hitting a sea mine, leading to a significant slowdown in strait traffic.

The situation reflects broader regional instability, with Iran-backed groups in Yemen reportedly receiving Chinese-supplied parts to build advanced ballistic missiles. This development underscores the complex web of alliances and military support in the Middle East. The involvement of China in regional conflicts highlights its growing influence in global security matters.
