China's defence ministry announced a potential escalation of military action against Taiwan, following a recent series of war games targeting the island. The exercises were part of Beijing's ongoing pressure strategy.

The ministry signaled further measures would follow any provocations, underscoring its firm stance against Taiwan's independence movements.

These drills, distinct from May's exercises, were described as a deliberate increase in efforts to resolve the Taiwan issue on Beijing's terms.
