China trimite nave militare după ce o navă americană a intrat într-o zonă disputată. Beijingul acuză SUA că amenință stabilitatea regională
China dispatched naval forces to track an American military ship accused of unauthorized entry near a disputed reef in the South China Sea. The incident occurred on October 20, near Sabina Reef, with China claiming the U.S. violated its sovereign rights and endangered regional security. The Chinese military demanded the U.S. cease such operations, while the U.S. has not confirmed if the Charleston's movement was part of a freedom of navigation mission. The area is strategically significant and has seen previous confrontations between Chinese and Philippine vessels. The incident highlights tensions among China, the Philippines, and the U.S., especially given the mutual defense treaty between the U.S. and the Philippines.
