The list now includes major players like drone maker Skydio and BRINC Drones, which reportedly engaged in military-tech collaboration with the island of Taiwan despite China's objections. The ministry stated these actions 'seriously harmed China's sovereignty,' sparking immediate import/export bans and investment freezes.
💡 Key Details:
🔒 Restricted firms include Skydio Inc., Red Six Solutions, Insitu Inc., and eight others.
