International News: Taiwan activates air defence as Chinese military aircraft enters zone

Posted: Thursday, June 8, 2023. 8:51 am CST.

By Zoila Palma Gonzalez: Today, Taiwan activated its air defence systems following increased intrusions by China’s military aircrafts.

According to Reuters, 37 Chinese military aircrafts were detected flying into Taiwan’s air defence zone.

In recent months, China has ramped up military drills near Taiwan amidst heightened tensions.

China views Taiwan as its territory and has long vowed to “reunify” the self-governing democratic island.

Taiwan’s Defence Ministry noted that from early Wednesday, it detected 37 Chinese air force planes including J-11 and J-16 fighters as well as nuclear-capable H-6 bombers, flying into its air defence zone.

In response, Taiwan deployed aircraft and ships to monitor and activated land-based missile systems.
