Taiwan practices repelling Chinese sea invasion in war games

TAIPEI, 27 July 2022, (TON): Taiwan simulated intercepting Chinese attacks from the sea in annual war games on Tuesday, with President Tsai Ing-wen hailing the military’s determination as she watched from onboard a destroyer.

Democratic Taiwan lives under constant threat of being invaded by China, which views the self-ruled island as part of its territory to be seized by force if necessary.

On the second day of the island’s largest annual war drills, Tsai, dressed in military fatigues, boarded the Kee Lung class destroyer to supervise a live-fire drill off Taiwan’s eastern coast.

The military said “fighter jets and warships set off various types of missiles aimed at intercepting a group of enemy ships.”
