Egypt under scrutiny: Israeli media alleges espionage using Chinese drone technology
Ina sensational claim, an Israeli media outlet, Natsiv.net, alleges that Egypt has been spying on Israel in collaboration with China's Air Force. The accusation”—made after the arrival of Chinese aircraft in Upper Egypt for joint training exercises—suggests that Egypt has tested Israeli systems on the southern front.
At the heart of the controversy is a Chinese early warning aircraft that reportedly landed in Beni Suef Military Airport. This aircraft, capable of providing real-time aerial views, allows Egypt to monitor Israeli military activities, according to the report.
The Chinese aircraft allegedly conducted "provocative" flights near the Israeli border, activating Israeli warning systems. As a consequence, the Chinese early warning aircraft recorded Israeli reactions, raising eyebrows in Israel.
The report labels this move a "flagrant violation" of the Egyptian-Israeli peace treaty, prompting surprise at the United States' silence, the treaty's guarantor.
Shedding light on the perceived threat, the report urges Israel to respond to Chinese interests in its territory, such as the port of Haifa, stressing that Israel is not Taiwan and should not tolerate such provocations.
So far, Israel has remained tight-lipped, yet to release any official diplomatic protest regarding the matter.
This development comes amidst joint air exercises between Egypt and China amid escalating tensions in the region.
On a separate note, reports indicate a potential collaboration between Turkey and Egypt in the production of drones. This cooperation aims to boost Egypt's capabilities in unmanned aerial systems and, potentially, increase exports to other markets. While this collaboration doesn't seem to directly impact the Egyptian-Israeli peace treaty, its broader geopolitical implications could be complex and may influence regional dynamics.
