Summary
South Korea scrambled fighter jets as five Chinese and six Russian warplanes entered its air defense identification zone (KADIZ) on Friday, though they did not breach national airspace.
The incursion, part of joint Chinese-Russian military drills, occurred near the contested Dokdo islands and lasted over four hours.
South Korea condemned the unannounced flights, calling for measures to prevent escalation.
Similar incidents have increased since 2019, reflecting deepening China-Russia defense ties amid tensions with the U.S., South Korea, and Japan.
This follows other global airspace incidents involving Russian and Chinese forces.
Stop trying to make war happen, we don’t want it.
China’s MO is to antagonize. They keep pushing knowing that sooner or later some individual they’re antagonizing is going to fuck up and cross the line, and they’ll be able to go all in on a “response” while blaming the other side for starting it.
It’s insane to me that entire fucking countries governments act no different than literal children.
This is stereotypical school yard bully tactics. It’s so fucking stupid. People point to specific sad stories as reasons they lost faith in humanity… I point to every country on the planet acting like children any time they have a slight disagreement, or decide they want something someone else has.
K was right. A person is smart. People are dumb, panicky, dangerous animals.
Sometimes I feel like we should go back for the guillotines and keep going until we get sane leaders that actually want what’s best for the citizens.
I mean what is the line there, I would say soon as they hit the “national” line instead of the identification line Id blow them out of the sky and broadcast the location of their downed jets proving their infraction. China doesn’t want war, it’ll crush their economy with everyone else’s. Choosing to go to war would likely only end in their people overthrowing their government whether they could hide the fact they instigated it or not. A billion starving people wouldn’t be easy to keep restrained.
War is another major economy driver, so no - it would not “crush” their economy. If you think in the current Internet age the Chinese government can be organized against so easily that it’ll be overthrown by their own people, then you know so little about China that further discussion on this topic with you is a complete waste of time.
So you think war has made Russias economy better? That’s the most modern example, show me.
Edit; the truth is temporary government money creates prosperity, long term, kills the economy
Special military operation 2: worldwide boogaloo
Not even a little bit.
What is it good for?
War, huh, good God y’all, what is it good for? Increasing domestic manufacturing.
Best comment I’ve seen all week. I donated to Feed the Children in your name.
Way to put your money where your mouth is. Big dick move.
Thanks. This makes watching Bo Burnham’s “Make Happy” this week worth it.
Small dick energy

Now that weak ass trump has been installed by his boss putin there will be a ramp up of these
So, not too sure where the association is but last I checked both Japan and SK populous statistically favor trump? They are generally both ideological right cultures?
Am I mistaken?
They may like his personality, but Trump has stated many times he doesn’t care to defend US allies. The next 4 years will be China and Russia’s best chance to advance their imperial ambitions.
The saber rattling escalates and it’s only November
You know maybe they should fly a super sonic jet right thru main st. china to see what happens.
The main street… Of China?
China o ly has like 5 roads. The rest are government lies cooked up by the CIA. Don’t belive the lies they are feeding you man.
All roads lead to China Main St.
Why? China also has an ADIZ which just like S.Korea’s and every ADIZ is based on bullshit not on international law. China will also “intercept” aka fly planes alongside and whine about Korean “aggression”.
ADIZ violations are not real. Actually trying to enforce one by shooting down planes would be an unprovoked act of war.

Why scramble? Call them on their bluff.
They did not breach national airspace.
Fuck your autoplay video bullshit, OP.
A. This a link to an article not a video
B. If a video on a news site autoplays in your browser then you have your browser misconfigured
C. If the news site opens inside your lemmy app and the site autoplays the video, then your app is shit or misconfigured
The post OP created has an embedded video that automatically starts playing.
Yeah that looks like the clients fault not OP
Interesting… loading the post link (lemmy.world) in a browser does not show any video embed, but loading the post through lemm.ee autoplays the video embed.
I’m taking it hardly anyone else is getting the auto play video then.
Might be something to bring up as a “bug” for .ee
