China simulates striking Taiwan on 2nd day of drills FMTNews FMTWorld

A Chinese warship sails during a military drill near Taiwan’s Matsu Islands close to the Chinese coast.

“Under the unified command of the theatre joint operations command centre, multiple types of units carried out simulated joint precision strikes on key targets on Taiwan island and the surrounding sea areas, and continue to maintain an offensive posture around the island,” it said. “Regarding the movements of the Chinese communists’ Rocket Force, the nation’s military also has a close grasp through the joint intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance system, and air defence forces remain on high alert,” the ministry said.

The de facto US embassy in Taiwan said today the US was monitoring China’s drills around Taiwan closely, and is “comfortable and confident” it has sufficient resources and capabilities regionally to ensure peace and stability.
