Original Note:
The Chinese 44th naval escort task force has been involved in routine operations in the area since May, so this deployment is not a response to the presence of US naval forces. The Chinese have previously used similar fleets to assist in evacuations of conflict zones. https://amp.scmp.com/news/china/military/article/3238536/6-chinese-warships-present-middle-east-over-past-week
