Tensions Ringing For India As Chinese 'Spy' Ship Docks At Lanka's Hambantota

Chinese 'spy' ship Yuan Wang-5 docked at Sri Lanka's Hambantota port on August 16 amid concerns raised by India and the US. The vessel with some 2,000 sailors on board has facilities to track satellites and intercontinental missiles and is slated to remain at the port till August 22. The update also comes a day after India gifted Dornier maritime reconnaissance aircraft to Colombo. While tension brews between India-China over Chinese spy Ship, recently, External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar said that it would be innapropriate to call docking of the Chinese ‘spy ship’ Yuan Wang 5 at the Sri Lankan- port a "flashpoint" between India-China.
