🚨Germany has accused the Chinese military of firing a laser at a German aircraft participating in a European Union operation in the Red Sea. In response, the German Foreign Ministry condemned the incident as “completely unacceptable” and summoned the Chinese ambassador for an explanation.

Did they give them a stern talking to and said don't do it again?
Pilot startled by laser pointer? Wish there were more details. Do exercises happen at sight of non-participating military?
It wasn’t just a simple laser pointer — reports say it was a high-powered military-grade laser, which can temporarily blind or disorient pilots and pose a serious safety risk, especially during flight operations.
While exercises do happen, deliberately targeting another nation’s aircraft — even with non-lethal means — is considered highly provocative and unusual, especially between major powers like China and Germany.
Maybe Germany should stop supporting terrorism instead of complaining when the Chinese use non lethal means to defend themselves.
Why do you think that ugsok for Germany to fly jets over other countries ships trying to intimate them in service to Israel?
I guess it wasn't but even if it was, what are other military vehicles doing in close vecinity in what I assume was an announced exercise in international waters?
Was a pilot hurt? Was equipment damaged?
Why the fuck does Germany think they own the sea?
Oh yeah that's right the German government is controlled by Israel and pays for 30% of Israelis bombs being used to target civilians that's why.
