Taiwan has reported that 38 Chinese aircraft entered the island's air defense identification zone (ADIZ) on Friday, marking the largest daily Chinese incursion into the area.
The Taiwanese military used aircraft to warn away the Chinese planes, and deployed missile systems to monitor them, Reuters reported on Saturday.
"China has been wantonly engaged in military aggression, damaging regional peace," Taiwan Premier Su Tseng-chang told reporters, according to the news organization.
In a tweet on Friday, Taiwan Foreign Minister Joseph Wu wrote: "Oct. 1 wasn't a good day. The #PLAAF flew 38 warplanes into #Taiwan's ADIZ, making it the largest number of daily sorties on record. Threatening? Of course. It's strange the #PRC doesn't bother faking excuses anymore."
PLAAF refers to the People's Liberation Army Air Force.
The incursion came on the day Beijing celebrated the founding of the People's Republic of China, 72 years ago.

China can simply wait it out and take over Taiwan from within like they have with the USA and Hong Kong. The military flexing is for show.

This is why they are going apes**t on vaccination.
Diversion from the latest disaster in the far east, which undoubtedly they have let China know is no problem for them.
“They” of course being the illegal regime in power in DC.

They can bomb Taiwan back to the stone age.
But they cannot take it.
And it pisses them off.

Naturally...they’d have destroyed so much infrastructure,
It’d takem quarter of a century to get it back up and running.
