According to the WeChat official account "People's Navy" on December 7, the spokesperson for the People's Liberation Army Navy, Captain Wang Xuemeng, stated that recently, the Liaoning aircraft carrier battle group of the Chinese Navy conducted normal flight training with carrier-based fighter jets in the sea area east of the Miyako Strait, and had previously announced the training airspace and sea area.

During this period, Japanese Self-Defense Force aircraft repeatedly approached the Chinese Navy's training airspace and sea area, causing serious impact on the normal training of China and seriously endangering flight safety. The Japanese side's hype is completely inconsistent with the facts. We solemnly demand that Japan immediately stop defaming and smearing, and strictly control the actions of frontline forces. The Chinese Navy will take necessary measures in accordance with the law to resolutely safeguard its own security and legitimate rights and interests.

According to previous reports, on December 6 local time, the Japanese Ministry of Defense stated that the Chinese Navy's Liaoning aircraft carrier battle group passed through the Miyako Strait on that day, entered the Pacific Ocean, and conducted aircraft landing operations. On the same day, Japanese Defense Minister Koizumi Shinjiro "added drama", claiming that Japanese Self-Defense Force aircraft were "continuously radar-locked" by Chinese military aircraft in international waters, and stated that he lodged a protest with China, but remained silent about the behavior of Japanese aircraft at that time.

This is not the first time the Japanese side has "added drama". In June this year, the Japanese side also "turned the blame" and claimed that a J-15 fighter jet from the Chinese Navy's aircraft carrier Shandong "followed" a Japanese Maritime Self-Defense Force P-3C patrol aircraft conducting a "reconnaissance mission" in the Pacific Ocean and "abnormally approached". In fact, the so-called "reconnaissance mission" that the Japanese side claimed was actually monitoring the movements of the Chinese aircraft carrier.
