“Something didn’t look right to me because in nature very rarely do you see straight lines,” said Wang, chief operating officer of ingeniSPACE, which analyses satellite imagery and ship signals data.
“We’ve seen like two, 300, up to a thousand (Chinese fishing boats congregate), but anything exceeding a thousand I thought was unusual.”

Why is this world news?
Shouldnt this be on “World News from 3 months ago and built by AI crap”?
Edit: not changing my original comment, but I will say that I didn’t read enough of the article to see that this was still happening.
I stand by my comment about the poor use of AI to generate the article, even though the subject of the article is still happening.
Because it’s still ongoing, most recently like a week ago according to the article. And why do you think AI is involved?
I should have been more clear. It looks to me like AI was used to write the article. I edited my original comment to include some more detail.
I didn’t see that this was still happening.
It’s still happening. Also, claiming something is AI when it’s not and downplaying the potential invasion of Taiwan makes it sound like you’re from a Chinese bot farm.
Taiwan is its own country and deserves its autonomy.
Updated my comment with a note, but kept the original part for posterity
