China sends largest incursion of warplanes into Taiwan defence zone since October
In recent years the People’s Liberation Army has ratcheted up its missions, which it says are training drills, to near-daily frequency
China’s air force flew 39 warplanes into Taiwan’s air defence identification zone on Sunday, the largest daily number since record-breaking incursions in October.
Taiwan’s Ministry of Defence said it had tasked aircraft in response, issued radio warnings to the People’s Liberation Army (PLA) pilots and deployed missile defence systems to monitor the activity.
