After Iran unveiled its new hypersonic missile, the US announced the imposition of sanctions on several Chinese and Hong Kong firms claiming that they were supplying Iran's ballistic missile program.
According to the US Treasury, the Chinese companies shipped centrifuges for fuel production, non-ferrous metals with potential military use, electronics, and gyroscopes to Iranian government entities and private companies involved in building the missiles already sanctioned by the US.
