• The Guardian: China’s recent military drills near Taiwan were a substantive and “war-like” escalation on those conducted last August despite not including any missile launches, some analysts have said… some military analysts have said that this weekend’s drills were more specific about China’s intent to annex Taiwan, demonstrative of a pre-invasion attack, and raised the risk of miscalculation and escalation.
• From Saturday morning until Monday evening, the PLA sent 232 warplanes towards and around Taiwan, inside its air defence identification zone. The ADIZ is a large area far beyond sovereign territory, monitored for defence purposes. This compared with 167 during the Pelosi drills, although higher activity was recorded for days before and afterwards, and set a new normal for the months to come. There was a huge diversity among the aircraft reported inside the ADIZ this time. Monday’s cohort included 13 different types, including five models of fighter jets, a reconnaissance drone, transport planes, nuclear-capable bombers, and refuelling aircraft.
• The aircraft carrier Shandong, which led drills in the western Pacific Ocean for the first time, launched J-15 fighter jets towards Taiwan hundreds of times to simulate direct strikes on the island.

• Washington Post: Falling birthrates, the declining appeal of the military and the increasing chances of conflict mean the military has for years struggled to meet its recruitment targets.

• Taiwan is adding to its supply of modern fighter jets. When the 66 F-16s made by Lockheed Martin arrive, Taiwan will have more than 200 of the fourth-generation fighter jets, one of the region’s largest fleets. But at the current rate, Taiwan will not have enough people to fly those planes.

China used the August 2022 visit to Taiwan by then House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to permanently change to the status quo in the Taiwan Strait by erasing the median line, the unofficial boundary between the China and Taiwan in the Taiwan strait, and each of these categories saw a change in their previous composition as a result.
• The term ‘routine’ is not intended to normalize the PLA’s behavior around Taiwan; instead, such violations are intended to alter the status quo such that the presence of PLA aircraft is no longer novel. Assertive violations are meant to keep a consistent level of pressure on Taiwan’s armed forces. Finally, reactionary violations involve ten or more aircraft and are intended to signal Beijing’s displeasure with a geopolitical development involving Taiwan.
