A Chinese aircraft carrier and seven other Navy ships, including several destroyers, passed between islands in Japan&rsquo;s southern Okinawa chain in a show of strength on Monday, according to a Japanese defence ministry statement.</p>
<p>
The ships sailed between the main Okinawa island and Miyakojima, the statement said.</p>

Although there was no incursion into Japan&#39;s territorial waters, helicopters on board the Liaoning aircraft carrier took off and landed.</p>

This was the first time that a Chinese aircraft carrier was confirmed to have passed through the area since December last year, according to Japanese national broadcaster NHK.</p>
