The actions of the Chinese military jet were reportedly deemed “unsafe” and “unprofessional” by Major General Huddleston. The jet allegedly engaged in “dangerous maneuvers” within “close proximity” of the Canadian aircraft. The jet also allegedly launched multiple flares near the front of the Canadian plane causing more concern. Global News reporters were on board reporting on Operation Neon. Defense Minister Bill Blair also spoke on the “unprofessional way” in which this was done.
