FOX News: US military releases video of Chinese warship cutting across American destroyer in Taiwan Strait
The move comes nearly a week after a Chinese fighter jet flew directly in front of the nose of a U.S. Air Force reconnaissance aircraft
The U.S. military released video on Monday of a close encounter between a Chinese navy ship and an American destroyer in the Taiwan Strait over the weekend.
The U.S. Indo-Pacific Command (USINDOPACOM) reported China’s “unsafe maneuver” on Saturday, but did not release the video footage until early Monday morning, in which a Chinese navy ship can be seen cutting sharply across the path of USS Chung-Hoon.
The destroyer had to slow down to 10 knots to avoid a collision. USS Chung-Hoon and Canadian frigate HMCS Montreal were conducting a “freedom of navigation” transit of the strait between Taiwan and China’s mainland – waters that are considered international to the U.S. and its allies, but an “exclusive economic zone” to China.
