Taibe,
Adjacent to China, Taiwan is functioning as an independent country. However, China views Taiwan as one of its integral territories. Countries including America are extending support to Taiwan. As a result, China, which is enraged, has been intensifying military operations around Taiwan from time to time.
From time to time, Chinese military aircraft and naval ships have been encroaching on Taiwan’s airspace. Finding this, Taiwan is also engaged in countermeasures.
In this case, Taiwan’s Ministry of National Defense has informed that 14 Chinese warplanes and 6 naval ships have flown around Taiwan from 6 am yesterday to 6 am today.
Of those, 2 aircraft flew over the mid-line of the Taiwan Strait. The 4 aircraft flew in the south-west and south-east corners of the country’s air defense detection zone.
China’s move has seen Taiwan build up aircraft, naval vessels and anti-aircraft missiles to monitor its military operations.
According to a report published by the Taiwan News Agency, Taiwan has detected China’s military aircraft 71 times and naval ships 63 times so far this April.
Last March, 359 Chinese military aircraft and 204 naval vessels were detected around Taiwan, according to Taiwan News. The number of naval vessels and military aircraft operating around Taiwan’s air and sea areas has been steadily increasing since September 2020. This has been a threat to Taiwan. However, Taiwan is retaliating.
