China has sent 41 military aircraft and nine warships into the Taiwan Strait in the past 24 hours, Taipei’s defense ministry said in a daily update posted on social media platform X. Of the total, 30 aircraft entered the island’s Air Defense Identification Zone (ADIZ), prompting Taipei to scramble its own aircraft and deploy missile defense systems. Since the beginning of the month, China – which claims Taiwan as an “inalienable part” of its territory – has sent 94 aircraft and 17 ships into the Strait.
