India Alerts Over Chinese 'Spy' Ship Near Lanka 🚢

The Indian navy is monitoring the movements of a Chinese research vessel that is bound for Sri Lanka’s Hambantota port. The 'spy' vessel is scheduled to dock at Hambantota port in mid-August. However, the exact purpose of the vessel’s visit to Hambantota is unclear. The visit of this Chinese ship to neighbouring Sri Lanka is also under the watch of the Modi government. This Chinese research vessel heading to Sri Lanka — called the Yuan Wang 5 is reportedly involved in various space and satellite tracking. The aerial reach of the ship is more than 750 km and that would indirectly mean that Kalpakkam, Koodankulam, and the atomic research centre within Indian borders can be snooped upon.
