Social media was abuzz on Friday with reports that Taiwan had shot down a chinese Sukhoi-35.
A video that purportedly showed a burning aircraft shot down in Taiwanese airspace went viral along with these claims. These reports gained mileage as tensions between China and Taiwan are at a peak, as Taiwan distances itself from China and the latter seeks to tighten its grip on what it considers its territory.
What really happened?
