On Thursday, Taiwan’s Defense Ministry reported the detection of 68 Chinese warplanes and 10 naval vessels operating in the vicinity of its shores within a 24-hour period.

Earlier this week, Taiwan had issued a warning that China was intensifying “gray zone” activities in the vicinity of the island.

By 6 a.m. local time on Thursday, 40 of the identified aircraft, including fighter jets and a drone, had crossed the median line of the Taiwan Strait, entering both the southwestern and southeastern airspace of the self-governed island, as stated by the ministry.

Taiwanese authorities promptly deployed combat air patrol aircraft, naval vessels, and land-based missile systems to address these actions, the ministry added, DW reported.
