Thousands China Soldier and Hundreds Amphibious Release Brutal Shots in East China Sea
The Chinese military on Wednesday began a week of live ammunition training in the East China Sea, against a backdrop of escalating tensions in the Taiwan Strait and the US and Japan holding joint drills in the region.
The first day of the weapons training, which was announced by the maritime safety authority, coincided with the final day of Chinese military training in the South China Sea, which had begun on Sunday.
Experts said that it was designed to counter recent US-Japan joint drills in the disputed South China Sea.
The USS Carl Vinson and its strike group had been in the contested waters for exercises with the Japan Maritime Self-Defence Force’s JS Kaga, carrying out flight operations, coordinated tactical training between surface and air units, and maritime strike exercises, the US Navy said last week.
