A Chinese naval fleet entered the Sea of Japan after Tokyo completed the deployment of its two Type-25 missile systems, which are capable of targeting parts of China, amid rising bilateral tensions. Beijing strongly protested the move and criticised the Japan Ground Self-Defence Force’s expansion of its strike capabilities. Chinese officials described the deployment as a sign of “neo-militarism” in Japan and warned that it could undermine regional stability. The development came at a time when both nations were already facing strained relations over security issues in East Asia.
