This is a thread specifically for the war, not a general megathread (use the pinned /c/genzedong thread for that).

Please keep related news in this thread rather than making separate posts. Remember to include sources and avoid spreading rumours.

I hope this is something the PRC said, and I cannot rule it out, but that is a little more confrentational than the PRC tends to act. If this is what happened it is a big deal

It's absolutely fake. This is so outlandishly outside of what China would do. The US would have to actual board and take a Chinese ship for them to even consider anything more then a strongly worded letter.
