China wants to create a cyber weapon that can take over an enemy satellite

China is developing a hacking program that allows it to control the satellites of hostile countries. "Financial Times" reported on this based on the leaked report of the US Central Intelligence Agency.

According to intelligence reports, China is increasing its ability to exchange information and control communications in times of war. Both Moscow and Beijing have recently made significant progress in jamming satellites and other areas.

Such information is leaking against the background of increased risk of an invasion of Taiwan, a territory that China considers its own, trade and geopolitical tensions between Beijing and Washington.
