Taiwan has issued a stern warning to China following the detection of over 100 Chinese warplanes and nine navy ships in areas surrounding the self-governed island. Beijing asserts Taiwan as its own territory and has long expressed its intent to seize it, even if force is required, a stance that has heightened diplomatic and military tensions in the region.

Taiwan’s defence ministry has described the recent influx of Chinese warplanes as a “recent high,” raising serious security concerns in the Taiwan Strait and the surrounding region. While Beijing has yet to comment officially on these actions, Taipei’s defence ministry has condemned them.
