….'Immediately Or You'll Be Intercepted' In The Air Near Taiwan "Chinese state-run media has broadcast an ominous warning allegedly issued by a fighter jet to a US plane in disputed waters near the Taiwan Strait. In barely comprehensible English, an 'airman' says over the radio: 'This is China Naval Air Force on guard. You are approaching Chinese air domain, change your course immediately or you will be intercepted.' The pro-Beijing tabloid The People's Daily tweeted that the audio clip was recorded on July 23 when 'a US military plane was driven away by a Chinese jet.'…" YouTube link Main page link
Imho…the video that the Chinese are using to claim this intercept appears to be stock footage….

They violate air space we violate air space. Nothing new. Nobody respects the other side. |

Yes, airspace is different than internationally recognized boundaries of 12 nautical miles off shoreline. |

I doubt it was from another aircraft. Probably just mis-information. Most likely from a radar ground control station. |
