China's Military Incursions Near Taiwan

Taiwan's Ministry of National Defense has reported multiple instances of Chinese China===People s Liberation Army aircraft and China===People s Liberation Army Navy vessels operating around its territory. These incursions include aircraft crossing the median line and entering Taiwan's Air Defence Identification Zone. This ongoing military pressure from China, which considers Taiwan its own territory, has prompted responses from Taiwan's armed forces. In a related development, South Korea and Japan have agreed to resume bilateral naval search-and-rescue exercises, signaling increased regional military cooperation amidst growing security threats from China and North Korea. Tensions between Japan and China have also escalated following remarks by Japan's Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi regarding a potential Chinese attack on Taiwan.
