US, China spar after warships come dangerously close in disputed sea

The Chinese naval ship identified the US vessel, warned and expelled it, Chinese foreign ministry spokesperson Hua Chunying said, stressing that China has indisputable sovereignty of the Nansha islands (Spratly Islands) and its adjacent waters. An official US statement described the move by the Chinese destroyer as "unsafe" because it moved within 41 metres of the US warship.
