China Sea, collision with an “unidentified object”: damage to a US nuclear submarine

BEIJING – A mysterious “unidentified object”. This is what a US Navy nuclear submarine, the Uss Connecticut, crashed into while surfacing in international waters in the South China Sea. Waters where China claims almost total sovereignty and which are at the center of the clash between Beijing on the one hand and the United States and allies on the other, especially after the signing of the Aukus, the pact between the United States, the United Kingdom and Australia to contain the Chinese advance in the region.
