The Covid-19 outbreak in Shanghai could delay the launch of China's third aircraft carrier, the South China Morning Post (SCMP) reported on Sunday, citing sources.

The vessel was scheduled for launch on the 73rd anniversary of the People's Liberation Army Navy, on April 23.

The ongoing Covid-19 outbreak in Shanghai has caused a delay in some key components of the ceremony, one SCMP source pointed out.

Another source told the newspaper that the launching ceremony could also be postponed due to organizational difficulties amid the outbreak.
