California-based Navy sailor pleads guilty to providing sensitive military information to China_我的网站

一 |     LOS ANGELES -- A U.S. Navy sailor charged with providing sensitive military information to China pleaded guilty in Los Angeles on Tuesday to conspiring with a foreign intelligence officer and receiving a bribe, federal prosecutors said. Petty Officer Wenheng Zhao, 26, originally pleaded not guilty when he was charged Aug. 4. The Justice Department alleges that Zhao, based at Naval Base Ventura County, north of Los Angeles, conspired to collect nearly $15,000 in bribes from a Chinese intelligence officer in exchange for information, photos and videos of involving Navy exercises, operations and facilities.The information included plans for a large-scale U.S. military exercise in the Indo-Pacific region, which detailed the location and timing of naval force movements, prosecutors said. The Chinese officer told Zhao the information was needed for maritime economic research to inform investment decisions, according to the indictment.Zhao, who also went by the name Thomas Zhao and held a U.S. security clearance, “admitted he engaged in a corrupt scheme to collect and transmit sensitive U.S. military information to the intelligence officer in violation of his official duties,” the U.S. Attorney's Office said in a news release Tuesday. Zhao, of Monterey Park, California, faces a statutory maximum penalty of 20 years in federal prison. He has been in custody since his arrest on Aug. 3.Zhao was charged on the same day as another California-based Navy sailor who is accused of similar crimes. But they are separate cases, and federal officials haven't said if the two were courted or paid by the same Chinese intelligence officer as part of a larger scheme. Jinchao Wei, a 22-year-old assigned to the San Diego-based USS Essex, is charged with providing detailed information on the weapons systems and aircraft aboard the Essex and other amphibious assault ships that act as small aircraft carriers. He pleaded not guilty in federal court in San Diego. Last week, a former U.S. Army intelligence officer was charged in Seattle with attempting to provide classified defense information to the Chinese security services during the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic. Sgt. Joseph Daniel Schmidt, 29, was arrested Oct. 6 at San Francisco International Airport as he arrived from Hong Kong, where he had been living since March 2020, the Justice Department said. A federal grand jury returned an indictment charging him with retention and attempted delivery of national defense information. U.S. District Court records in Seattle did not yet list an attorney representing Schmidt on the charges, and neither the U.S. attorney’s office nor the federal public defender’s office had information about whether he had a lawyer.An FBI declaration filed in the case quoted Schmidt as telling his sister in an email that he left the U.S. because he disagreed with unspecified aspects of American policy.。    

8月17日，市民在位于承德滨河湿地公园南互通高速桥下的运动场地内打乒乓球。日报记者 陈宝云摄8月17日清晨，记者来到承德滨河湿地公园。滦河边的南互通高速桥下传来乒乓球撞击台面的清脆声响，与流水声交织在一起。走进桥下空间，记者眼前一亮，这里俨然一个热闹的健身乐园。乒乓球台前，几位市民正挥拍激战。不远处的篮球场上，年轻人在晨光中运球投篮。

二 | 头顶不再是冰冷的水泥面，而是绘成了蓝天白云。四周的桥柱上绘满彩画，让原本灰暗的桥下空间焕发出生机与活力。“以前桥下就是一片空地，长满杂草，没人愿意来。”正在打乒乓球的市民张旭阳说，自从这里改造成运动场地后，他几乎每天都来。

三 | “头顶‘蓝天’，身边有花有草，打球的心情都不一样了。

五 | 承德地处山区，城市可用空间有限。如何在寸土寸金的山城里让市民就近运动健身？承德向“边角余料”要空间——立交桥下、河岸绿道、街角口袋公园……很多过去被忽视的“金角银边”，经过改造成为市民身边的“微运动场”。记者从承德市体育局了解到，近年来，承德在滨河湿地公园南互通高速桥下、双峰寺高速桥下、武烈河大桥下等地，建设了200余处综合运动场地，涵盖篮球场、足球场、排球场、羽毛球场、乒乓球场、轮滑场等。在武烈河沿岸的绿道，记者看到，健身步道上晨跑、散步的市民络绎不绝。河畔新增了不少智能健身器材，市民在锻炼时可实时了解运动数据。“从家走到这儿用不了10分钟，器材新、环境好，每天我都要来一趟，身心特别舒畅。”在河畔锻炼的市民李颖说。在双峰寺高速桥下，综合球类场地同样人气旺盛。足球场上，孩子们追逐奔跑；羽毛球场边，等候上场的市民排起了队。“桥下晒不着淋不着，一年四季都能运动，比去体育馆还方便。”带孩子来桥下踢球的家长陈晓勇说。从“被遗忘的角落”到“家门口的运动场”，承德用“绣花功夫”盘活城市存量空间，让“15分钟健身圈”从规划图变成了市民触手可及的现实。截至目前，承德市运动场地达1.2万余个，人均场地面积约3.18平方米，经常锻炼的群众超四成，全民健身蔚然成风。（日报记者 陈宝云）。
