A US Navy missile destroyer illegally crossed the Taiwan Strait. This was reported by the command of the People’s Liberation Army of China.
The Benfold passed through the strait on 28 July. Chinese sailors accompanied him throughout the entire movement of the destroyer.
“The facts show that the United States is the largest violator of peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait”, the PRC military noted.
Army spokesman Shi Yi noted that provocations from the United States have long ceased to be something extraordinary.
