The Defense Ministry said one of the Chinese military's Y-9 intelligence-gathering planes had briefly entered Japanese territory near the Danjo Islands off Nagasaki Prefecture from around 11:29 a.m. to 11:31 a.m., prompting the Air Self-Defense Force to scramble fighter jets in response. The ministry said the fighters had taken steps such as "issuing warnings," while NHK reported that no weapons or flares were fired. | | | |
