China claims Australian helicopter attempted to spy on naval exercise

Beijing claims Australia was trying to spy on naval exercises as it changes its explanation for why it confronted an Australian helicopter last week. An incident took place in the Yellow Sea when a Chinese fighter jet entered the airspace of an Australian helicopter, after which the fighter jet emitted flares, forcing the helicopter to undertake an emergency evasive manoeuvre. Both sides blame each other for this incident, which happened last Saturday. A Chinese military spokesperson said the helicopter had got within close range of Chinese airspace. However, now China has claimed the Australian helicopter was attempting to spy on a naval exercise. The Australian government has denied this claim.
