LIVE: China Conducts 'Punishment' Military Drills Around Taiwan to Test 'Seize Power' Capabilities
Tensions rose sharply between China and Taiwan on Friday. Chinese state media aired an animation depicting a missile attack on Taiwanese cities. Meanwhile, China's military continued large-scale war games surrounding Taiwan, practicing seizing control of key areas. Beijing claims these drills are punishment for Taiwan's newly elected president, Lai Ching-te. The exercises, which began Thursday near the Taiwan Strait and islands controlled by Taiwan, reportedly included simulating attacks on foreign ships. Taiwan denounced China's actions and deployed its own air force and missile defense systems to track the drills.
