The PLA Eastern Theater Command dropped a 🔥 high-intensity video today showing live-fire exercises around Taiwan, titled 'Seize Strongholds, Sever Links, Blockade Ports.' The drills, part of 'Justice Mission 2025,' come as regional tensions remain a hot topic among global security analysts.
What's in the Footage?
Gun cameras and drone feeds show warships, fighter jets, and amphibious units simulating combat scenarios. One scene features troops storming a mock coastal fortress with the caption: 'Safeguarding national sovereignty is our sacred duty.'
Why This Matters Now
While the Chinese mainland describes these as routine exercises, Taiwan authorities have reportedly increased radar surveillance this week. A spokesperson for the PLA Eastern Theater Command stated: 'These drills test our capabilities to respond to complex security challenges.'
Global Reactions
APEC members including the US and Japan are monitoring the situation closely. Meanwhile, social media trends show #TaiwanStraitDynamics gaining 1.2M+ views on Douyin (China's TikTok) within hours of the video's release.
