The new arms include biological weapons designed to induce sleep or sleep-related disturbances in enemy troops. The goal is to impair cognition and alertness.

will seek cognitive manipulation and control of enemies.

Other weapons it is working on include “genetic drugs” — pharmaceuticals designed to modify the genetic and physiological makeup of people and seek to impact cognitive, emotional, and behavioral traits.

Source? A think tank said so.

    Decided to go down this rabbit hole and see what their sources are.

    Here's the "research" report PDF.

    These are the two papers in Chinese that they cite to support their claims:

    Here is a machine translation of a paragraph from the first paper. This seems to be what they're basing all of their claims on.

    The production of biological weapons such as sleep weapons, brain-computer interfaces, brain-controlled weapons, and genetic drugs directly affects cognition, emotion, will, and behavior from the physiological point of view, which is more direct and lethal than traditional psychological influences. The fact that war deprives military personnel of sleep has been widely circulated, and as early as the 70s of the last century, Britain began to study sleeping weapons. From sleep glasses to keep one's own personnel awake and "nightless" drugs to soft-kill radio waves that cause drowsiness and thirst in the enemy, future research that genetically alters physiological limits is moving toward the center of the battlefield. Recently, the brain-controlled weapons developed have made the ideal of "a soldier who surrenders without a fight" a reality, and it is also one of the ultimate weapons that will change the tide of war in the future. Such an endless stream of biological weapons has impacted the physical and psychological state of combatants, causing a huge threat to the physical and psychological safety of military personnel.

    And then these are the two papers they cite as evidence that China is developing mind control energy weapons:
