[An Nahar] Japan and South Korea said Thursday they have defied China's newly-declared air defense zone, showing a united front to Beijing after U.S. B-52 bombers did the same.
Chinese authorities are coming under internal pressure to toughen their response to incursions into the air defense identification zone (ADIZ), which it declared unilaterally last weekend.
It includes disputed islands claimed by China, which knows them as the Diaoyus, but controlled by Japan, which calls them the Senkakus. |
