China sends four fighter jets to highly-contested island in the South China Sea, as tensions grow

· June 21, 2019 ·

Taken above the skies of Woody Island on Wednesday, the images mark a major military development in the disputed region. China has never before placed its sophisticated J-10 fighter jets on Woody or any Chinese-controlled islands before — and the move comes as tensions in the region are on the rise. Earlier this month, a Filipino fishing boat was hit by a Chinese vessel in the body of water, after which China was criticised for aggressive actions. Analysts say the placement of fighter jets in the open is significant and shows they were on the contested island for up to 10 days.

The Prime Minister’s choice of words was a clear signal. Other nations, most notably the United States, … [Read more...] about Scott Morrison takes veiled swipe at China during visit to Vietnam
