News of the military exercises come just three days after Taiwanese President William Lai was inaugurated.

.

Taiwan's defense ministry called the Chinese military drill "irrational provocations," while deploying naval, air and ground forces to "defend the island's sovereignty.".

According to Taiwanese military officials, the latest Chinese drills are the first simulated full-scale attack on the island.

.

Maps released by China's People's Liberation Army (PLA) showed that the exercises were taking place all around Taiwan's main island.

.

For the first time, the drills also targeted the Taiwanese islands of Kinmen, Matsu, Wuqiu and Dongyin, all which lie near to the Chinese coast.

.

According to the PLA, the drills are focused on conducting joint sea-air combat-readiness operations and precision strikes on critical targets.

The exercises will also run integrated operations inside and outside the island to determine the "joint real combat capabilities" of Tawian's forces.

China's foreign ministry defended the drills as a "necessary and legitimate move" to safeguard national sovereignty.

I need to stress that Taiwan is an inalienable part of China's territory.

This is both a fact based on history and the true status quo.

This will not change in the future.

Taiwan independence is doomed to fail, Wang Wenbin, China's Foreign Ministry spokesman, via BBC

Czech Intelligence Report Reveal SHOCKING Details Of China’s ‘Dirty’ Plan For Taiwan Vice President [Video]

Czech Intelligence Report Reveal SHOCKING Details Of China’s ‘Dirty’ Plan For Taiwan Vice President

A shocking Czech intelligence report has revealed that Chinese agents plotted a staged car crash to intimidate Taiwan’s Vice President-elect Hsiao Bi-Khim during her 2024 visit to Prague. Described as a “demonstrative kinetic action,” the operation was orchestrated by individuals linked to China’s embassy in Prague. Military intelligence says the attempt never advanced past the planning stage — but a Chinese agent’s reckless move, running a red light while tailing Hsiao’s convoy, sparked the investigation. Taiwan’s Presidential Office has condemned the plot, while Czech officials quietly raised concerns with Beijing. The incident further exposes China’s covert operations and aggressive attempts to isolate Taiwan diplomatically. Lawmakers in Taiwan called the plot an act of “transnational repression.” Despite China’s pressure on global governments, Taiwan continues to assert itself as a sovereign democracy — and this failed intimidation attempt may have backfired for Beijing. #Taiwan #ChinaSpyPlot #HsiaoBiKhim #TaiwanVP #CzechIntel #ChinaCrashPlot #BeijingThreat #ChinaTaiwanTensions #TaiwanNews #PragueCrashPlot #CzechRepublic #InternationalLaw #ChinaAggression #OneChinaPolicy #Authoritarianism #ChinaExposed #TaiwanSecurity #TaiwanIndependence #ChinaEmbassy #DiplomaticTensions ~HT.410~GR.124~ED.102~

Trump Slams Xi as 'Hard to Deal With'; Launches Big Attack After Chip Crackdown, Taiwan Warning

In a sharp late-night post, Donald Trump called Chinese President Xi Jinping "very tough and extremely hard to deal with," reigniting tensions between the U.S. and China.

Taiwan President REJECTS China's Claim On South China Sea | Xi Brands Lai-Te As ‘Crisis Maker’

President Lai Ching-te marked one year in office with a powerful message: Taiwan wants peace with China—but not at the cost of realism or sovereignty. In his speech, Lai emphasized that only Taiwan’s people can determine the island’s future, calling for dialogue based on “reciprocal dignity.” China, however, rejected his offer, branding him a “Taiwan Strait crisis maker.” Amid rising tensions, Taiwan’s coastguard has reported security breaches from the mainland.
