Divya Delhi: For the First Time, Japan Sails a Warship in the Taiwan Strait to Prove Its Freedom of NavigationA week after a Chinese aircraft carrier sailed between two Japanese islands close to Taiwan, a Japanese destroyer made its first passage through the Taiwan Strait to assert its freedom of navigation, according to local media on Thursday. Since the claims are about military operations, Japan's senior government spokesperson Yoshimasa Hayashi declined to comment on them during a routine briefing. China is getting upset as more and more American and allied forces cross the 180-kilometer (112-mile) Taiwan Strait to maintain their status as international waterways. On Wednesday, the destroyer Sazanami made the historic passage, according to multiple Japanese media agencies. Additionally, military ships from Australia and New Zealand navigated the hotly disputed region on.
