//BLUF: CHINESE COAST GUARD VESSELS TRANSIT JAPANESE WATERS. TENSIONS WORSEN BETWEEN NORTH AND SOUTH KOREA.//
-----BEGIN TEARLINE-----
-International Events-
Far East: Chinese military drills continue in the vicinity of Taiwan, as Japan reports the incursion of Chinese Coast Guard vessels into their territorial waters. Japanese authorities have reported the incursion of 4x Chinese Coast Guard vessels into the waters off the coast of the Senkaku Islands in the vicinity of Okinawa.
On the Korean Peninsula, tensions have been increasing over the past few months amid worsening relations between the North and South. Yesterday North Korea explosively demolished two major roads leading to the DMZ, in a symbolic gesture indicative of the current divisions between the two nations. As South Korean troops were obviously not notified of the detonations in advance, significant small arms fire was noted as South Korean troops initially thought they were under attack.
-HomeFront-
Washington D.C. – This afternoon the White House announced the sending of another $425 million of military aid to Ukraine.
Arkansas: A large industrial fire was reported at the Marck Industries recycling facility in Rogers. The fire reportedly began as a small cardboard fire before spreading to the rest of the facility. Air quality warnings have been issued due to the potentially toxic smoke being emitted from the facility.
-----END TEARLINE-----
Analyst Comments: In the Pacific, China’s recent activities are not entirely new escalations, with Chinese vessels routinely conducting power-projection operations in Japan’s waters near the various territorial outlying islands that are administered by Japan. Chinese naval patrols are usually a political message both to Japan and the significant US military presence on Okinawa.
