The Chinese army is practicing various scenarios during exercises near Taiwan to test real combat capabilities, including strikes on targets on land and at sea, Senior Colonel Li Xi, the spokesperson for the Eastern Theater Command, said on the WeChat messenger.
"On May 23, the forces of the PLA's Eastern Theater Command successively conducted exercises to practice strikes against sea and land targets and anti-submarine warfare in the sea and air space east and south of Taiwan," the statement reads. Li said the drills were aimed at testing the actual combat capabilities and coordination of the PLA's Eastern Theater Command forces.
China on Thursday launched the Joint Sword 2024A exercises near Taiwan, which will be held on May 23-24. They are intended to serve as a "serious warning" to separatist forces seeking to isolate the island from the mainland.
