Typical example of media trying to make something out of nothing. A similar exercise was conducted this summer in June, with 11 ships. They also did some similar exercises last year.



Considering US and Japan just concluded their exercise a couple of week ago with a carrier battle group (see below), another Chinese exercise with 6 ships (including supply ships) is somehow a "response" to other US moves in the region can't be more ridiculous.
