South China Sea Breaking: Taiwan Deploys HIMARS Unit To Target Deep Into China | Xi Vows Retaliation

South China Sea Breaking: In a significant escalation of defensive capabilities, Taiwan has officially formed its first combat-ready HIMARS rocket unit. This move is designed to strengthen deterrence against increasing threats and military pressure from China. Taiwan's Defense Minister, Wellington Koo, lauded the new unit as a "significant boost" to the island's defensive power, underscoring the strategic importance of this deployment. The soldiers operating these advanced systems have completed specialized training in the United States, highlighting the close military cooperation between Washington and Taipei. The M142 High Mobility Artillery Rocket System (HIMARS) is a game-changer for Taiwan's military. It can fire six 227mm rockets or a single Army Tactical Missile System (ATACMS) missile, the latter boasting a range of up to 300 kilometers. This impressive range means that key military and strategic targets deep within mainland China's coastal provinces are now potentially within Taiwan's strike capability. Reports suggest that Taiwan may have already acquired these long-range ATACMS missiles, a detail that is sure to alarm military planners in Beijing. This deployment is part of a larger arms deal with the U.S., with 11 of a total 29 HIMARS systems already delivered. The move aligns with America's broader strategy to build a strong coalition in the Indo-Pacific to counter China's growing military and economic dominance. While the HIMARS system has proven its devastating effectiveness in the Ukraine conflict, analysts note that China's more advanced air defense systems could pose a greater challenge. The activation of this unit comes as Chinese military aircraft and vessels continue to cross the sensitive median line of the Taiwan Strait, prompting regular intrusion warnings from Taipei and keeping the region on high alert. #Taiwan #China #HIMARS #USChinaRelations #BreakingNews #WorldNews #Geopolitics #OneindiaNews #IndoPacific #ATACMS Also Read Pakistan at China’s Command: Proxy War on India, Debt Trap at Home—Sri Lanka 2.0 :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/pakistan-at-china-s-command-proxy-war-on-india-debt-trap-at-home-sri-lanka-2-0-7791359.html?ref=DMDesc Iran To Buy Chinese J-10C Fighter Jets :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/iran-to-buy-chinese-j-10c-fighter-jets-7788123.html?ref=DMDesc China Halts Exports Of Specialty Fertilisers To India Amid Rising Tensions, Raising Supply Concerns :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/china-halts-exports-of-specialty-fertilisers-to-india-amid-rising-tensions-raising-supply-concerns-7783941.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~

Indian Army REFUTES ULFA Claims | No strikes on Banned outfit ULFA Camps in Myanmar

The Indian Army has denied claims made by ULFA-I of a cross-border drone strike on its Myanmar headquarters that allegedly killed 19 cadres. Defence PRO Mahendra Rawat said the Army has no inputs confirming any such operation. Sources suggest the attack may stem from infighting among militant groups. ULFA-I leader Paresh Baruah remains elusive near the tri-junction with ISI support. With Myanmar’s border regions in turmoil, Indian officials remain concerned over insurgent activity and the exploitation of the porous border. #ULFAI #IndianArmy #MyanmarStrike #DroneStrikeDenial #IndiaMyanmarBorder #CrossBorderAttack #BreakingNews #ManipurMilitancy #PareshBaruah #InsurgentGroups #Tatmadaw #MyanmarConflict #BorderSecurity #IndiaNews #ULFAClaims #Infighting #ISI #NorthEastIndia #PorousBorders #SecurityAlert #ULFACamps #MilitantActivity #RupomAsom #MyanmarViolence #CounterTerror #DefencePRO #ArunodayDohotiya #NayanMedhi #IndiaDeniesStrike Also Read Operation Sindoor Reveals Multi-Front Threat: India's Strategic Wake-Up Call from Pakistan, China, and Turkey :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/operation-sindoor-reveals-multi-front-threat-indias-strategic-wake-up-call-from-pakistan-china-a-7793223.html?ref=DMDesc China Uses Pakistan As ‘Live Lab’ For Weapons Testing, Says Indian Army Deputy Chief :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/lt-gen-rahul-r-singh-81-of-pakistan-s-military-gear-comes-from-china-7791183.html?ref=DMDesc First Greenfield Shipyard, HSL, Turns 85!
