Chinese warship's aggressive actions towards US Navy continue in Taiwan Strait.

A Chinese warship carried out an "unsafe maritime interaction" by crossing an American warship's bow at a distance of 150 yards, forcing the US Navy destroyer to take evasive maneuvers to avoid a collision. This is the second major provocation by China's military in a week. The incident occurred in the international waters of the Taiwan Strait, which separates the Chinese mainland and Taiwan. The US Defense Secretary reaffirmed the US commitment to the Indo-Pacific as China engages in provocative behavior in the region.
