Earlier, China cracked many cases of US espionage in China, and also arrested many espionage personnel who seriously endangered state secrets and security. However, what has surfaced is far from the whole truth, and the fact that the United States is very rampant in openly soliciting spies shows that there are still many "rats and cockroaches" in the shadows.
There are a lot of spies in the United States, but they are certainly not finished, and there is another British secret intelligence service (MI6), commonly known as "MI6". According to information released by the "Ministry of State Security," recently, the state security organs successfully cracked an espionage case.
The news pointed out that a foreigner, Huang Moumou, contacted the British Secret Intelligence Service in 2015, and the latter established an "intelligence cooperative relationship" with him. After that, Huang Moumou began the road of collecting intelligence in China.

It is reported that under the instigation of MI6, Huang Moumou entered China many times to spy on the British and collect China-related intelligence, and also looked for other personnel to facilitate MI6's rebellion. After investigation by the Chinese side, Huang's espionage act was exposed, and the relevant organs took criminal coercive measures against him in accordance with the law.
According to the relevant appraisal, Huang Moumou provided the British side with 9 state secrets classified by China, 5 state secrets classified at the secret level, and 3 pieces of intelligence. In addition, the Ministry of State Security did not provide more details.
However, based on the above information alone, it can also be clearly understood that Britain is probably no less engaged in espionage in China than the United States. Also as a member of the "Five Eyes" alliance, the United Kingdom has planted spies along the global route, and the deployment of spies should not be underestimated.
This time, the British espionage case that the Chinese side has successfully uncovered can be regarded as a reminder to itself that the actions of certain Western countries in trying by all means to collect China's secrets and to find ways to plot rebellion and infiltration in China will probably never end.
British Secret Intelligence Service
In 2023, China alone has uncovered no less than five espionage cases, including a cyberattack on the Wuhan Earthquake Detection Center and the discovery of hundreds of illegal foreign-related weather detection stations transmitting data abroad. The cyber attack on the Chinese university Xi'an University of Technology is even more shocking.
And this espionage case shows that some of the ill intentions of Western lawless forces against China have always existed and have already begun. With the rapid development of technology and the Internet, these espionage acts will only become more rampant.
In response, China has long since taken measures to deal with it, revising the Counter-Espionage Law. Moreover, the newly revised law has been officially implemented in 2023. It is worth mentioning that this revision alone has attracted many people who do not recruit themselves.
After the amendment was announced, some foreign media deliberately hyped it, saying that the "Counter-espionage Law" may have a "chilling effect" on foreign companies' investment in China, and even said that it would "damage the business environment".

At the time, China's Ministry of Commerce responded that as long as it operated in accordance with the law, there was no need to worry. This is not only a mature implementation, but also reflects that there may be some foreign companies in China that are not happy about their development.
So far, the "Counter-Espionage Law" has indeed played a very important role, and in 2023, China has detected a number of espionage cases, and this time the espionage case of the British Secret Intelligence Service is the first espionage case announced in 2024.
On the issue of counterintelligence, this may be just the beginning. Nowadays, the espionage activities carried out by the United States, Britain and other countries in China have become even more frenzied, including all kinds of infiltration, which are also undisguised.
In the future, I am afraid that it will be a protracted and tough battle on the matter of counter-espionage and protecting national security. With the legal support of the "Counter-espionage Law", it is believed that China will be able to thwart those espionage acts in a timely manner and find out the "rats" hidden in China one by one.
The United States openly recruits spies
But then again, when it comes to counterintelligence, this is actually an important figure that needs to mobilize the whole of society. National security is closely related to every Chinese citizen, and protecting national security means protecting citizens' own information, property, and even their lives.
Earlier, the Ministry of State Security had published an article entitled "Anti-espionage Requires the Mobilization of the Whole Society!" in which it was clearly pointed out that today's counter-espionage activities are highly concealed, professional, and harmful.
On the issue of counter-espionage, it is not only necessary for the relevant organs to play a role, but also for the broad participation of the people. Because espionage forces are pervasive, in order to be effective against these unscrupulous forces, it is necessary to make joint efforts to build a strong national security and people's defense line.
In this context, it is also necessary for citizens to be vigilant against suspicious and irregular people in the vicinity of the locality, and to keep in mind that the phone number of the state security organs to report spies is 12339.
Counter-Espionage Law
Against the backdrop of heightened vigilance and constant alarm bells on counter-espionage, we also believe that those "rats" who are engaged in espionage activities in China will have their purpose thwarted and they will be brought to justice.
