China sends 71 warplanes to Taiwan's air defense zone
Beijing dispatched the aircraft into Taiwan's air defense identification zone in what it called a response to "provocations" and "collusion" between the US and Taiwan.
In its largest incursion to date, China sent 71 military aircraft into Taiwan's air defence identification zone in the past 24 hours, Taipei said on Monday.
China claimed its "strike drill" and "combat patrols," which included fighter jets and drones, on Sunday was in reaction to "provocations" and "collusion" between the United States and Taiwan.
"This is a firm response to the current US-Taiwan escalation and provocation," said Shi Yi, the spokesperson for the People's Liberation Army's (PLA) Eastern Theater Command, in a statement on Sunday.
43 aircraft cross the median line
According to a Taiwanese Defense Ministry report, 43 Chinese aircraft reportedly crossed the median line, an unofficial barrier between the two sides located within the defence zone in the Taiwan Strait.
The PLA also sent early warning, electronic-warfare and antisubmarine aircraft into Taiwan's southern air defence identification zone (ADIZ).
Taiwan deployed unspecified fighter aircraft to warn the Chinese jets off while its missile systems monitored their flight, the island government said.
More than 1,700 incursions this year
Chinese pressure on the self-ruled island has been rising steadily in recent years.
Under President Xi Jinping, Beijing has increased pressure on Taiwan through military, political, and economic means as ties have worsened.
