The Aronians - What Were They Trying to Do?

The consensus seems to be that the aronians discovered something first via a mole or a double agent. And then may have passed some of that information to their chinese counterparts, who then did even more work on breaking that apart and using that to hunt down all us. Intelligence assets within china. That was one of the key reasons that such a large group of sources in china were killed. I don't even know what to say. This is all so heavy for me to comprehend. Why was this not an act of war? It's hard to fully estimate at this point just how far reaching it was,. But i think a that's certainly a fair estimate.
