U.S. President Donald Trump on Sunday brushed aside a report that Iran acquired satellite images ​of a base in Jordan from Chinese entities before ‌an attack that killed three U.S. troops there in July, Reuters reported.

A recent report in the Wall Street Journal cited unnamed U.S. officials about the ​attack in Jordan. Asked whether he would mention the ​issue at an upcoming meeting with Chinese President Xi ⁠Jinping, Trump did not directly answer, and instead equated the ​surveillance activities of China and the United States.

“They basically do ​what we do,” he told reporters aboard Air Force One. “When they say China spies on us, I say you’re right and we spy on ​them too.”

The Chinese and U.S. presidents are expected to meet in ​the United States on September 24, although China has yet to officially confirm ‌that ⁠the meeting will take place.

Trump on Sunday reiterated his view that he has a good relationship with Xi.

“I think he’s behaved reasonably well, and we behave reasonably well,” Trump said as ​he flew back ​to the ⁠United States after a weekend trip to Ireland.

The Wall Street Journal report, which Reuters could not ​immediately verify, said the U.S. officials declined to ​identify ⁠the Chinese entities that supplied the imagery to Iran and did not allege direct involvement by Beijing.

Trump’s comments appeared consistent with ⁠the administration’s ​recent efforts to play down wide-ranging ​tensions between Washington and Beijing, despite U.S. frustration over Beijing’s close ties to ​Tehran.

India defeated Afghanistan by seven wickets in the first T20I at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in New Delhi on Sunday, taking a 1-0 lead in the series after chasing down a target of 157 in 13.4 overs.

Afghanistan made a positive start after being asked to bat first, but their innings was disrupted by a sharp collapse in the middle overs. They fell from 38/1 to 43/5, losing four wickets for five runs and putting themselves under significant pressure.

The collapse began with a run-out involving Afghanistan captain Ibrahim Zadran and Sediqullah Atal. After the ball was played towards deep midwicket, the batters attempted a second run but were unable to complete it. Zadran slipped while turning for the run, allowing Ishan Kishan to finish the dismissal with a direct throw.

Afghanistan’s recovery then depended largely on Azmatullah Omarzai and Mohammad Nabi. Omarzai remained unbeaten on 64 from 44 balls, while Nabi contributed 33 as the pair added important runs to take Afghanistan to 156/8 from their 20 overs.

Arshdeep Singh was India’s leading bowler, taking three wickets for 19 runs. Jasprit Bumrah also returned to the Indian playing XI after missing recent assignments because of a left-knee injury.

Afghanistan’s total left little margin for error against India’s batting line-up, and the hosts quickly took control of the chase. Abhishek Sharma scored 82 from 32 balls, reaching his half-century from 22 deliveries with seven fours and seven sixes.

Sharma’s rapid scoring significantly reduced the required run rate and allowed India to maintain control despite the early dismissal of Sanju Samson, who made 10.

Ishan Kishan then provided further stability, scoring 42 from 33 balls. India reached the target in 13.4 overs, with Kishan helping ensure there was no late pressure in the chase.

The sides will meet for their second T20I on Tuesday.

Fans can watch the match live on Ariana Television Network (ATN).
