Navigational data showed that the number of trackers of the movement of the US House of Representatives Speaker Nancy Pelosi has reached nearly 300,000, in light of the tensions between China and the United States resulting from her possible visit to Taiwan.
Navigational data for the "Flightradar" website showed that Nancy Pelosi's plane passed through Indonesian airspace during her tour of East Asia.
The data of the famous website for tracking air traffic shows that the number of direct followers of the plane is approximately 300 thousand, and it is the most followed plane in the world now, and the number had previously exceeded 350 thousand followers.

Beijing rejects any possible visit of Pelosi to Taiwan, while the US administration asserts that the Speaker of the House of Representatives is free to make or cancel the visit.
For days, China has issued warnings to the administration of US President Joe Biden, threatening "severe consequences" if Pelosi goes to Taiwan.
In the context, the Chinese military threatened to "move" if Pelosi went ahead with her plan.
These statements and warnings come at a time when Pelosi has not officially announced the inclusion of Taiwan in her tour, which includes, in addition to Singapore, Japan, South Korea and Malaysia.
On Monday, Taiwanese broadcaster TVBS indicated that Nancy Pelosi will arrive in the capital, Taipei, on Tuesday evening.
Beijing considers any visit, even a brief visit by the US House of Representatives to Taiwan "a provocation."
During her more than 35-year career in Congress, Nancy Pelosi has been a "strong critic" of China.
Pelosi's visit to Taiwan, if it takes place, will be the first by a speaker of the US House of Representatives in 25 years, after Republican Newt Gingrich's trip in 1997 to meet with then Taiwan President Lee Teng-hui.
China designates self-governing Taiwan as a breakaway province that should become part of the country.
