I prefer the explanation that they just blatantly ignored it over the explanation that interfering in the interdiction would have been an act of war.
I am going to have a maybe controversial opinion here on hexbear chapo lemmy and say that uh, I do not like the state of Israel and I do not like the state of China...
...but uh what? This is a nothing burger. Even if a Chinese ship is on an anti piracy mission, and even if this all actually happened as described...
Is China a major ally or in a military alliance with, or even known to militarily cooperate with Israel or its allies?
... No?
Was China probably interested in doing anti piracy for its own state owned shipping company and those that are based in and/or operated by and/or largely shipping to itself and its regional allies / more friendly states?
Yes?
Wow, what a shocking story /s.
This is just plain old geopolitics, you dont even need to have an ideology, just a basic grasp of like international politics 101 to see this.
EDIT: Oh right, I forgot that the vast majority of human beings are not really capable of entertaining any idea more complicated than Our Team Good, Other Team BAD, how silly of me.

You sure people don't just think your theoretical grasp of geopolitics is outstripped by your simplistic take itt? I would remain silent about others knowledge until you demonstrate something to be arrogant about
