Beijing [China], November 19 (ANI): Four Chinese vessels on Friday entered Japanese territorial waters near the disputed Senkaku Islands, Japanese media informed.
This is the 37th case of Chinese patrol ships' entrance into the territorial waters of Japan this year, Sputnik reported citing Japanese media Kyodo News.
The Senkaku Islands are administered by Japan but claimed by China, which calls them Diaoyu.
Japan insists on its sovereignty over the islands, effective since 1895, while China points to the 1783 and 1785 Japanese maps designating the islands as Chinese territory, Sputnik reported.
In similar developments, Japan Foreign Minister Yoshimasa Hayashi on Thursday also expressed concern about the repeated intrusions of ships sent by Beijing into Japanese waters near the Senkaku Islands, Kyodo News reported. (ANI)

Sibal argued that the US is unlikely to risk a naval operation to forcibly "reopen" the Strait of Hormuz as the deep-water channel necessary for large vessels lies within Iranian territorial waters. Iran does not need sophisticated long-range missiles to defend this corridor; short-range missiles, torpedoes, and mines can easily sink high-value naval assets.
