In early 2001, a US Navy EP-3E surveillance aircraft collided with a Chinese fighter jet near Hainan Island, resulting in the death of the Chinese pilot and the emergency landing of the US crew in China. The 24 American personnel were detained for 11 days before being released after diplomatic negotiations. The incident heightened tensions between the two nations and raised concerns over military encounters in international airspace. The US later expressed regret over the incident, while China sought to assert its territorial claims.
