On July 1, 2024, at 3:00 am, the Chinese Navy's first domestically-built aircraft carrier, the Shandong (17), has recently attracted attention for its movements. Former Navy Captain Lu Lishi analyzed the latest movements of the ship, indicating that the Shandong ship has concluded its naval presence display and returned to the sea area between Sanya in Hainan Island and the Xisha Islands in the South China Sea to practice basic skills. Satellite photos confirm this movement. The ship's departure from Sanya followed a maritime conflict between China and the Philippines in the South China Sea. Lu Lishi's observations were based on satellite images and suggested that the Shandong ship has returned to the South China Sea region for activities.
