    This "news article" has zero details and links to a twitter status with even less details:

    I search around and found two articles, both from "Jewish" sources, both quoting the Pentagon:

    • 2023-11-29 US: China ignored distress calls from hijacked Israeli ship https://www.jns.org/us-china-ignored-distress-calls-of-hijacked-israeli-ship/
      • Chinese naval vessels ignored repeated distress calls from an Israeli-owned commercial tanker that was under attack by suspected Somali pirates on Sunday, according to the Pentagon.

      • Pentagon Press Secretary Brig. Gen. Pat Ryder confirmed that at least three People’s Liberation Army Navy ships in the area failed to heed the distress calls.

      • “So, my understanding is there were three PLA Navy ships in the vicinity. However, they did not respond. Supposedly, those ships are there as part of a counter-piracy mission, but they did not respond,” said Ryder.

    • 2023-11-29 US: Chinese Navy Ignored Distress Calls of Hijacked Israeli Ship https://www.jewishpress.com/news/global/china/us-chinese-navy-ignored-distress-calls-of-hijacked-israeli-ship/2023/11/29/
      • Chinese naval vessels ignored repeated distress calls from an Israeli-owned commercial tanker that was under attack on Sunday, the Pentagon said on Monday.

      • Pentagon Press Secretary Brig. Gen. Pat Ryder confirmed that at least three People’s Liberation Army Navy ships in the area failed to heed the distress calls.

      • “So, my understanding is there were three PLA Navy ships in the vicinity. However, they did not respond. Supposedly, those ships are there as part of a counter-piracy mission, but they did not respond,” said Ryder.

    This is the source from US DoD:

    • 2023-11-27 Pentagon Press Secretary Brig. Gen. Pat Ryder Holds an Off-Camera, On-the-Record Press Briefing https://www.defense.gov/News/Transcripts/Transcript/Article/3598749/pentagon-press-secretary-brig-gen-pat-ryder-holds-an-off-camera-on-the-record-p/
      • Q: Did any other assets put eyes on the Central Park before the Mason got there?

      • BRIGADIER GENERAL PAT RYDER: So my understanding is there were three PLA Navy ships in the vicinity. However, they did not respond. Supposedly, those ships are there as part of a counter-piracy mission, but they did not respond.

    A single Q&A buried in a long transcript from the US DoD turns into sensationalist title on two "Jewish" news articles two days later, and someone reposts it on twitter 3 weeks later with no details. This is how liberal propaganda works, please don't promote this sort of shitty journalism.
