The Telegraph's blurb for its Iran podcast states in its headline, as fact, that China and Russia 'rearm Tehran'. Its own body offers only targeting assistance, missile parts for the Houthis and 'potential' S-400 batteries, so the headline drops the qualification the text gives.

    Minor

    “China and Russia rearm Tehran”

    Why this matters
    The headline states flatly, in The Telegraph's own voice, that China and Russia are rearming Iran.
    The impression it gives
    A reader takes it as established that Beijing and Moscow are supplying Iran with weapons now.
    The context
    The body offers 'targeting assistance', parts for the Houthis and only 'potential' S-400 batteries. Nothing in the article shows China rearming Iran. The headline drops the qualification the body gives.
