Chinese intelligence agencies have discovered turtles and fish in China's marine waters, to which sensors were attached that transmitted information abroad. This was announced on June 12 by the Ministry of State Security of China.

"Large live marine animals were found in one of the marine areas of China, to which sensors were attached. Spy underwater inhabitants collected sensitive data on water temperature, salinity, sea currents and other parameters of the marine environment in real time," The Guardian reports.
