Israelis Fear Chinese Cars!

According to Israeli Army Radio, the Israeli military has officially prohibited the entry of Chinese-manufactured vehicles into its bases across all regions of Israel for security reasons.

As reported by Fararu, quoting RT, Israeli Army Radio announced on Tuesday that the growing influence of China has sparked increasing concern within the military—so much so that, for the first time, a comprehensive ban on Chinese-made vehicles entering all military bases has been issued.

This sweeping ban comes amid fears that information could be leaked via the sensors and cameras embedded in these Chinese vehicles. The new directive is expected to be enforced across all Israeli military bases.

This decision comes despite the fact that, previously, the Israeli army had provided its officers with the electric vehicle "BYD Atto 3."

It has been stated that Chinese vehicles, equipped with advanced sensor systems, are considered "potential tools for intelligence data collection," capable not only of capturing visual and audio data but also of gathering biometric information from both passengers and their surroundings—and transmitting such data to servers based in China.
