Satellite images suggest China 'building third airstrip' in South China Sea


This satellite image taken on September 8, 2015 shows Mischief Reef in the South China Sea.
China appears to building a third airstrip in disputed waters in the South China Sea, according to new satellite images analyzed by the Washington-based Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS).
The images, taken September 8, come after China pledged to bring land reclamation in those waters to a halt, and will make for uncomfortable discussions when Chinese President Xi Jinping visits Washington next week.
