A Chinese fighter jet carried out an "unnecessarily aggressive" manoeuvre near a US military plane over the South China Sea, the United States has said.
In a statement, the United States' military command responsible for the Indo-Pacific said the Chinese J-16 aircraft carried out the manoeuvre last week in international airspace, and forced the US RC-135 plane to fly through its wake turbulence.
"The United States will continue to fly, sail, and operate safely and responsibly wherever international law allows," the statement said.
