Taiwan detects ‘massive’ Chinese military presence in region

Amid growing security concerns and the aggressive posturing of China, Taiwan has stated that it has detected a number of Chinese aircraft and warships operating around the country over the past 24 hours. The aircraft and warships crossed the meridian line of the Taiwan Strait and entered the air defence identification zone.

According to the Defence Ministry of Taiwan, 59 sorties of Chinese military aircraft and nine Chinese naval ships operating around Taiwan were detected yesterday. It said that 43 out of 59 sorties crossed the median line of the Taiwan Strait. The ministry stated that the Taiwan Armed Forces have monitored the situation and employed Combat Air Patrol aircraft, navy ships, and coastal missile systems.

Meanwhile, Taiwan continued its first-ever combat drills, with the Army simulating anti-landing combat to keep Chinese forces from reaching the capital Taipei.

On the other hand, the Chinese Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council issued a stern warning to Taiwan’s President Lai Ching-te, stating that Taiwan’s provocative actions against the Chinese mainland could lead to self-destruction.
