Is there any precedent of technology falling into the hands of the Chinese or Russians through Israel?

US Secretary of Defense Mark Esper told Israeli officials during a visit to Israel this week that the Trump administration has approved selling F-22 stealth fighters to the Jewish state, according to a Friday report in a Saudi-owned newspaper.
US President Donald Trump okayed the sale of the F-22 Raptor and precision-guided bombs to Israel, the London-based Asharq Al-Awsat newspaper reported, citing senior sources in Tel Aviv.
Such a sale would first require the US Congress to overturn a current law barring Washington from exporting the advanced fighter jets. The House of Representatives passed the law in 1998 over concerns that the nigh-unparalleled stealth technology in the F-22 could fall into the hands of Russia or China if the aircraft were sold abroad, including to Israel.

There's a law barring the U.S. from exporting F22 to Israel or any country, and the reason given is that the technology could fall into the hands of the Russian or Chinese if the deal gets through, including Israel. However, Israel is perhaps the closest American ally, so I was wondering if there was a precedent of Israel leaking technology or Israel getting compromised by Russian or Chinese spies.
