China's Military Drills Near Taiwan

The China — State Council of China conducted significant military drills around Taiwan from February 11-15, with its military aircraft and naval vessels frequently crossing the median line and entering Taiwan's Air Defence Identification Zone (ADIZ). Taiwan's Taiwan — Ministry of National Defense (Taiwan) consistently detected and monitored these activities. Concurrently, the China — State Council of China, through Wang Huning, reiterated its call for 'reunification' with Taiwan, which Taiwan's Taiwan — Mainland Affairs Council rejected as a threat of 'annihilation'. In response to the China — State Council of China's pressure, the United States — United States House of Representatives advanced the PROTECT Taiwan Act, signaling international concern and potential intervention.
