They won't join the conflict and cause a nuclear holocaust, that doesn't mean they're not materially supporting Iran

Indeed, isn't China the source of Iran's missiles and drones? So I'm pretty sure they're helping how they can without getting directly involved.

Iran has domestic missile and drone production, quite a lot of it in fact.

Not only that, they have historically refused deals to purchase military equipment, and have always preferred purchasing technology so they can make it themselves.

Yep, great point! Iran most of all values its independence, which is a blessing and a curse.
