英國軍情五處警告:超過100名英國學者被中國情報機關利用進行間諜活動

Quick Look

英國軍情五處公開警告,中國透過掩護機構中國通用技術研究院資助超過100名與英國院校有聯繫的學者進行學術研究,實際用於間諜活動,涉及人工智能、網絡安全等領域,學者多不知情,警告若繼續合作可能觸犯《國家安全法》。

Why It Matters

英國軍情五處此前曾與美國、加拿大、澳洲和新西蘭發布聯合警告,指出中國軍事情報機關針對職業社交網絡和求職平台進行情報收集。此次警告進一步揭示中國利用學術合作作為間諜工具的具體手法。

英國軍情五處警告,中國透過一家為其情報及安全部門效力的掩護機構,取得超過100名與英國院校有聯繫的學者協助,用於針對英國的間諜活動,這些學者對此並不知情。

這個英國的國內安全情報機關罕有地公開發出警告,提醒各大學和學者,如果繼續與中國通用技術研究院(China General Technology Research Institute,簡稱CGTRI)保持聯繫,最終可能因協助外國而面臨刑事檢控。

英國安全事務國務大臣翟偉紳(Dan Jarvis)表示,軍情五處的警告揭露了中國情報機構企圖利用英國的學術研究,損害英國國家安全。

他表示,自己已致函所有大學校長,要求終止與該機構的關係。

今年6月,英國軍情五處與美國、加拿大、澳洲和新西蘭的主要合作夥伴聯合發出警告,指中國軍事情報機關正以職業社交網站和網上求職平台為目標。

這次英國獨立發出的最新警告更進一步,揭示軍情五處所稱正在英國學術機構內不斷加劇的威脅。

軍情五處表示,中國通用技術研究院——英文名稱有時也譯作China Academy of General Technology(簡稱CAGT)——與中國國家安全部有「非常密切的聯繫」。

警告說:「軍情五處確認,中國通用技術研究院的主要目的,是資助能夠直接提升中國國家安全部間諜技術能力的學術研究。」

警告又說:「超過100名與英國有聯繫的學者,曾參與由中國國家安全部透過中國通用技術研究院資助的項目。」軍情五處補充,在部分個案中,研究人員可能並不知道這家掩護機構在其項目中所扮演的角色。

英國學者曾參與由中國通用技術研究院資助的項目,研究範疇包括人工智能、網絡安全、隱蔽通訊系統和訊息隱寫術。隱寫術是指把秘密訊息或檔案隱藏在普通訊息或物件之中。

軍情五處說:「這些活動有助中國國家安全部進行間諜活動,對英國國家安全構成威脅。」

安全警告表示,許多學術機構和個人可能是「出於善意」與中國通用技術研究院合作,因為該機構與中國國家安全部的關係一直被「刻意掩飾」。

警告續稱:「強烈建議英國學術機構立即檢視任何正在進行或計劃與中國通用技術研究院展開的合作,以確保中國國家安全部無法再從英國的大學或研究機構獲益。」

這項公開警告意味,未有立即採取行動的英國學者,最終可能觸犯法律。

該警告強調,英國在2023年通過、旨在打擊國家間諜活動的重要法例《國家安全法》,訂立了協助外國情報機關的新罪行,如果當事人按理應該知道自己的行為是在提供這類協助,便可能干犯該罪。

British PM says Iran played a role in suspected terror attack at Fairford base

British Prime Minister Burnham said in a BBC interview that the British government determined that Iran "played a certain role" in the suspected terrorist attack at RAF Fairford. The base is about 145 kilometers away from London and is currently providing US military bombers for military operations against Iran. Previously, the police arrested five British men near the base, but found no explosives in their cars and only found gasoline. The Iranian Embassy in the UK strongly denied the accusation, calling it baseless and malicious speculation. U.S. Secretary of State Rubio also hinted that the incident was related to foreign forces.

A stabbing incident occurred in the cockpit of a flight bound for Israel. The plane crashed and then diverted to Saudi Arabia.

On the way from Dubai to Tel Aviv, Dubai Airlines flight FZ1073 was stabbed by the pilot, causing the plane to plummet nearly 14,000 feet. Passengers described the experience as being like a roller coaster. Several men rushed into the cockpit to subdue the attackers. The plane diverted to land at Tabuk Airport in Saudi Arabia. Israeli officials called the incident an attempted jihadist terrorist attack. The investigation focused on how the Omani co-pilot obtained flight permission.
