Eleven Chinese military aircraft crossed the Taiwan Strait’s median line or entered Taiwan’s air defense zone on Aug. 14, a day after 13 planes had crossed the strait, the island’s defense ministry said.

The Chinese regime has conducted military drills around the island since U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) visited Taipei in early August.
