The People’s Liberation Army’s Eastern Theatre Command has said that it will conduct joint military operations near Taiwan from tonight, and will test-launch conventional missiles in the sea east of Taiwan.
The Eastern Theatre Command said that the exercises will include joint air and sea drills in the north, southwest, and northeast of Taiwan, long-range live firing in the Taiwan Strait, and missile test launches in the sea east of Taiwan.
China’s foreign ministry condemned U.S. House of Representatives Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s visit to China, saying it seriously damages peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait.
