China Claims Obstruction Led to Spy Aircraft Intruding into Japanese Airspace

This is clearly a lie, did an alien spacecraft push them into Japanese airspace?:

China claims an “unexpected obstruction” forced one of its military aircraft into Japanese airspace this summer, according to diplomatic sources quoted by Japan’s Kyodo news agency. China admits no wrongdoing by the Y-9 surveillance plane on Aug. 26 and makes no promises to take steps to avoid a repeat of the incident, Kyodo reported Saturday. The “obstruction” may be a reference to Japanese forces that tracked the Chinese plane, according to the news agency. The Japanese government dismissed the Chinese claims as “nonsense,” Kyodo reported, citing the same unnamed sources. The incursion, just southeast of the Danjo Islands, about 100 miles southwest of Nagasaki, lasted two minutes and sparked an intercept by Mitsubishi F-2 and F-15 Eagle fighter jets, a spokesman for Japan’s Joint Staff said the following day. Japanese government officials asked their Chinese counterparts for a full explanation of the incident during a high-level meeting on Oct. 23, according to a news release posted by Japan’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs that day. The flight was a “grave violation” of Japan’s sovereignty and a threat to its security, then-Defense Minister Minoru Kihara told reporters Aug. 27.
