Chinese military accuses US navy of illegal intrusion in South China Sea

The Chinese military accuses a US naval ship of ‘illegally intruding’ into disputed waters near the Second Thomas Shoal in the South China Sea, prompting the deployment of a Chinese naval force to track the USS Gabrielle Giffords, while the US Navy maintains that the ship was conducting routine operations in international waters consistent with international law; tensions have escalated in the region due to the territorial dispute between China and the Philippines, particularly concerning the resupply and repair of a grounded Philippine warship.
