Taipei:
Twenty Chinese military aircraft including fighter jets entered the southwestern corner of Taiwan’s air defence identification zone on Friday, the island’s defence ministry said, in an escalation of tension across the sensitive Taiwan Strait.
Taiwan’s air force deployed missiles to “monitor” the incursion, the island’s defence ministry said, without elaborating. It also said its planes warned the Chinese aircraft over the radio.
