India is scheduled to conduct a ballistic missile test from Wheeler Island (Odisha's Abdul Kalam Island) on November 10-11. Before this missile test, China deployed its spy ship Yuan Wang-6 in the Indian Ocean. This spy ship of the Chinese Navy belongs to the Wang-5 class, which was sent to Hambantota, Sri Lanka in August 2022. The ship was stationed in Sri Lanka for 6 days.
India is concerned that China is now trying to track down the missile which is about to be tested. With the help of these ships, China can get important information related to the missile's trajectory, speed, range, and accuracy.
India's cause for concern
According to media reports, open-source intelligence specialist Damien Simon has told that India can conduct a missile test from Abdul Kalam Island in Odisha between November 10-11. This missile can have a flight range of 2,200 km.
India announced the creation of a no-fly zone from the Bay of Bengal to the Indian Ocean on November 10-11 regarding this missile test. Therefore, the area between Sri Lanka in the West and Indonesia in the East has been blocked, which is in the testing range of the missile.
Wang-6 has reached the coast of Bali
Yuan Wang-6 has now advanced into the Indian Ocean. According to Marine Traffic, which tracks the movement of ships in the sea, China's spy ship Yuan Wang-6 has now crossed the Indian Ocean. At present, it is close to the coast of Bali.
Sri Lanka did not accept the appeal not to give entry to Wang-5
Earlier in August 2022, Wang-5 also stayed in Hambantota, Sri Lanka for six days before returning to the South China Sea. Because of the threat of espionage, India had asked Sri Lanka not to give entry to this ship in Hambantota, but later the Sri Lankan government gave it entry.
Chinese ship specializes in satellite tracking
The Chinese spy ship Yuan Wang-5 has mastered space and satellite tracking. China tracks the launch of satellites, rockets, and Intercontinental Ballistic Missiles (ICBMs) through Yuan Wang class ships. Earlier, when China launched the Long March 5B rocket in 2022, it went out on a ship surveillance mission. It was also involved in maritime surveillance of the launch of the first lab module of China's Tiangong space station.
