The US State Department on Thursday imposed sanctions on a Chinese research institute and several companies it said have been involved in supplying Pakistan's ballistic missile programme.
Washington similarly targeted three China-based companies with sanctions in October 2023 for supplying missile-applicable items to Pakistan.
Department spokesperson Matthew Miller said that the Beijing Research Institute of Automation for Machine Building Industry had worked with Pakistan to procure equipment for testing rocket motors for the Shaheen-3 and Ababeel systems and potentially for larger systems.
The sanctions also targeted China-based firms including Hubei Huachangda Intelligent Equipment Co, Miller said.
