Taiwan’s Ministry of National Defence reported increased Chinese military activity, with six PLA aircraft sorties and eight PLAN vessels detected near its territory, including three sorties that crossed the median line into Taiwan’s Air Defence Identification Zone. This escalation aligns with Taiwan’s ongoing review of its military and national security framework, aiming to fortify defenses against Chinese infiltration. The government’s strategy, articulated by Executive Yuan Secretary-General Xavier Chang, emphasizes legislative measures to counteract China’s attempts to undermine Taiwan’s sovereignty and influence public opinion.
