Important Takeaways:

• Report: Spying Fears After Chinese Nationals Caught Entering U.S. Sites 100+ Times
• Federal investigators believe spying networks are behind the 100-plus attempted entries by Chinese nationals into sensitive U.S. sites in recent years, a report Sunday set out.
• The cases are reportedly many and varied, including people crossing into a U.S. missile range in New Mexico — and scuba divers swimming near a rocket launch site and Kennedy Space Center in Florida, the Wall Street Journal said quoting officials familiar with the allegations.
• Drones to take detailed aerial footage of sensitive military sites have been seen— while the Pentagon confirmed cases of people “speeding through security checkpoints.”
• The report comes after Chinese balloons were seen crossing U.S. territory earlier this year to the embarrassment of the Biden administration.
• A common response by those stopped by officials is a claim to be confused and they often use what appears to be scripted language when confronted by security, the report said.
• For example, individuals and groups often claim to be looking for hotels or a Burger King when challenged.
• Still, the Chinese embassy in Washington is denying any espionage efforts and responded with equal measures of surprise and indignation at the accusations.
