- 5 years ago
A Chinese warplane entered South Korea's Air Defense Identification Zone three times today.
The Joint Chiefs of Staff responded immediately by scrambling fighter jets... to track the aircraft off the nation's southwestern coast.
The Chinese surveillance plane first entered from the southwest early Saturday morning and flew to the east,... entering Korea's air defense zone once more... after flying near Japan's Air Defense Identification Zone.
The JCS said this was the first time that a Chinese warplane had flown all the way to the East Sea this year.
South Korea's defense ministry lodged a complaint against Beijing,... and urged them not to repeat such actions.
