Tensions rise as US and Chinese warships narrowly avoid collision near Taiwan.

TL;DR Summary
The US Navy has released a video of a Chinese warship crossing in front of a US destroyer in the Taiwan Strait, calling it an "unsafe interaction" and raising concerns of future face-offs. The incident comes amid deteriorating Sino-US ties and disagreements over trade, Taiwan, and Russia's invasion of Ukraine. China's military rebuked the US and Canada for "deliberately provoking risk" with the rare joint sailing. Taiwan's defence ministry called China's actions "provocation" and called on China to respect the right to freedom of navigation.
