"The 'invaders' establish beachheads along Taiwan's west coast," If anything, this statement suggests Taiwan is distinct from the PRC, and that the PRC--being the invaders--are going into a foreign territory.

"The 'invaders' establish beachheads along Taiwan's west coast," No, in this case I think sam_paine is right. The AP has placed quotation marks around the word, implying that they are not true invaders.
Check the article.
Good catch sam.
