Taipei, Feb. 16 (CNA) The U.S. warship that sailed through the Taiwan Strait on Saturday has been identified as the USS Chancellorsville, according to a Facebook post by the U.S. Seventh Fleet late Saturday.

The post released on the U.S. Seventh Fleet's Facebook page reads, "the Ticonderoga-class guided-missile cruiser USS Chancellorsville CG-62 conducts normal underway operations transiting from the East China Sea to the South China Sea."

The post also has four photographs showing the warship and its crew.

However, it did not specify when the transit was made and if it was made via the Taiwan Strait which separates Taiwan and China.
