US authorities detain woman for alleged espionage
A woman from California named Wanying "Heather" Chang has been arrested on charges of espionage for China, following her surveillance of the Taiwanese president's son and his family in Seattle in 2025. She reportedly received instructions from Chinese officials to gather information about the family and take photographs of them, using espionage techniques and avoiding detection, with the aim of gaining influence over a high-ranking Taiwanese official amid rising tensions between China and Taiwan. She is expected to appear in federal court after the charges against her are confirmed. Meanwhile, Taiwan condemned the actions, characterizing them as cross-border repression.
