Military tensions between China and the US are rising again as US aircraft carrier George Washington will join exercises with South-Korea in the Yellow Sea, writes Wendell Minnick in Defense News.

China “won’t stand for U.S. naval provocation,” said Maj. Gen. Luo Yuan in an editorial published in the Aug. 9 edition of Global Times.
