The Taiwan Ministry of Defense has reported this Wednesday that 11 combat aircraft and three Chinese Army ships have approached its air and sea space, as they have been doing repeatedly in recent days.
As detailed by the Defense portfolio in a statement, at least "11 planes and three ships of the People's Liberation Army of China have been detected" in their surrounding region at 6:00 am (local time).
Of the total combat aircraft, three had entered the air defense identification zone in southwestern Taiwan.
In response, the Taiwan Armed Forces have monitored the situation and assigned aircraft to conduct combat air patrols to protect the Taiwan area.
Navy ships and land-based missile systems have also been mobilized to respond to "these activities" by China, according to the Taiwanese Defense Ministry.
