China appears to be militarising another disputed South China Sea island that is also claimed by Vietnam and Taiwan.
China appears to be constructing an airstrip on a disputed South China Sea island that is also claimed by Vietnam and Taiwan, according to satellite photos analysed by The Associated Press.

Also visible are large numbers of vehicle tracks running across much of the island, along with what appear to be containers and construction equipment.
