Gordon Chang sounds alarm on suspicious Chinese cargo flights reported near Iranian airspace
Mysterious Chinese cargo flights detected near Iranian airspace before dropping from radar, report claims

Gatestone Institute senior fellow Gordon Chang is doubling down on his warning over the alliance between China and Iran, after new reports of Chinese cargo flights nearing Iranian airspace.
"We know this isn't good, because those planes are turning off their transponders as they approach Iranian airspace. China is sending something it doesn't want the world to know," Chang said on "Mornings with Maria" Thursday.
"It could be ammunition, could be drones, pretty unlikely about that," he detailed, "but it also could be nuclear weapons. We just don't know."
Chang reacted to a recent report, which claims at least five separate flights departing from China in three days flew west into Uzbekistan and Turkmenistan before falling off the radar as they neared Iran.
The Boeing 747 freighters reportedly indicated a final destination of Luxembourg, but the aircraft never appeared near European skies.
