The Chinese military announced on May 25 that it would organize military drills in the sea and air spaces near Taiwan, a move it described as a “warning” to Washington.

Col. Shi Yi, spokesperson for the Eastern Theater Command of the People’s Liberation Army, said the regime’s military conducted “multi-service joint combat readiness patrols” and “actual combat drills” near Taiwan, according to a May 25 statement.
