2 Dozen Chinese Military Planes Enter Taiwan’s Airspace

  • Nearly two dozen Chinese military planes and warships were detected in the Taiwan Strait on Monday — and 11 of Beijing’s aircraft crossed the median line separating the two countries, Taiwan’s defense ministry said.
  • The intrusion into the buffer zone happened after the US Navy and Marines announced on Saturday that they were conducting joint military exercises in the South China Sea.
  • Relations between Washington and Beijing have become even more strained after a Chinese spy balloon flew over much of the United States mainland earlier this month before being downed by a US Air Force fighter jet off the South Carolina coast.
