  The U.S. Navy s 7th Fleet issued a lengthy statement on Thursday describing what it called a “freedom of navigation operation” by the USS Curtis Wilbur, a guided-missile destroyer, made in the South China Sea near the Paracel Islands earlier this week. The unusually long statement also rejected the statement from the Chinese Southern Theater Command that said the destroyer had been expelled from the contested waters. The PLA’s statement about this mission is false. USS Curtis Wilbur was not expelled from any nation’s territory. USS Curtis Wilbur conducted this FONOP [freedom of navigation operation] in accordance with international law and then continued on to conduct normal operations in international waters, read the Navy s statement.
