Taiwan Strait: Taiwan urges China to close new civil aviation routes

Taiwan on Thursday demanded that China close newly opened flight paths close to the Taiwan Strait that separates the two nations, claiming the move masked Chinese military intentions.


The route, announced on Thursday by the Chinese Civil Aviation Administration, passes 7.8 kilometers (4.8 miles) from the Taiwan Strait.
