Chinese military drills ‘threaten Taiwan ports, urban areas’

Taiwan’s defence ministry says planned Chinese live-fire military drills near the island threaten its key ports and urban areas and is pledging “strengthened” defences and a resolute response as cross-strait tensions soar.

“The defence ministry has closely monitored and strengthened preparations, and will respond appropriately in due time,” the ministry said.

“The military will definitely stick to its posts and protect national security. We ask the public to rest assured and support the military.”

The drill is “an attempt to threaten our important ports and urban areas, and unilaterally undermine regional peace and stability,” it added.

“This move will not help China’s international image.”
