Chinese Nuclear Submarine Sinking?
Western defence media has recently been buzzing with the story of a Chinese SSN sinking in the Yangtze River near Wuhan.
Do you see any shape or form of a submarine in the photo below? No? Why Not?
If the above satelite picture is the evidence of a submarine sinking, where is the shape or form of a submarine?
Obviously there was an accident; and the few cranes there should be able to pull out the sunken sub but why couldn’t the WSJ provide any pictures? The satelite forgot to take more photos after this photo was taken?

Fake news.
Firstly, the only place in China where nuclear submarines are built is in Bohai Bay, which is a bay near Beijing, while Wuhan only has conventional submarine construction plants.
Secondly, the depth of the so-called sunken area is only 6 meters, even smaller than the diameter of China’s latest conventional submarines.
Thirdly, the black shadow is clearly the projection of the crane on the leftmost ship, and another evidence is that the second, third, and fourth ships from left to right also have this shadow.
Fourthly, this news originates from the United States. There are too many fake news about the PLA in the United States, including the news of the sinking of a Chinese nuclear submarine last year, and even Taiwan has denied this news.
I think, it’s probably because the speed at which PLAN builds warships in recent years has been too fast, making the US Navy pale in comparison. Therefore, some people within the US always want to see PLAN’s jokes, and even these jokes are fabricated from the beginning.
