Chuan Hong 68 is identified as a repeat offender. It's been documented by those who frequently dive these wrecks that steel is disappearing at an alarming rate. Remember, there is no private ownership in China, the Government and thus CCP owns a stake in any business.

IMHO, these should be stopped, boarded, all materials returned to the sites scavenged then take them out to deep water and use the ship for target practice.

Criminal. The salvage vessels conducting these activities should be made into salvage..

That video is new. Did this just happen and if so how is that ship still floating? If this is new it's not the first time the Chinese have been caught doing this.

I’m thinking desecrating a grave is probably not the worst these people are capable of.

I hope these criminals find some old torps or something.

This seems like a good opportunity for some BUD/S training and missions.

I wonder how it would fly if we had a commander in chief who said publicly that any foreign vessel found salvaging an American WWII wreck would be fired upon and sunk.

I doubt they could go so far as to say there would be no life saving efforts provided to the crew. People would scream that is a crime but so is harvesting WWII wrecks/graves. It might make them think twice if a few salvage ships just vanished.

How would they feel if we swiped a couple hundred dozen of their terra-cotta soldiers and ground them up for gravel?

Look at the history of Communist China and you'll see these people are just idiots.

Mao decided that the sparrows were eating too much grain so kill all the sparrows and the people obeyed and killed all the sparrows.

Then all the insects that the now-gone sparrows USED to eat went to town on all the crops and caused a famine that killed millions.

The SEAL teams probably have some old ordinance and miscellaneous explosives that are rapidly approaching their ‘Best Before’ date

Our commander in chief is bought and paid for by the Chinese communist party.
