China Vows to Counter Taiwan 'Separatist' Activity as Taiwan Urges China to Halt Provocations | N18G

China’s Taiwan Affairs Office stated it will not tolerate Taiwan’s "separatist" forces and reiterated its commitment to defending sovereignty and peace in the Taiwan Strait. Taiwan's defense ministry reported increased Chinese military activity, including 53 aircraft near the island. The Taiwanese presidential office condemned these actions as a "blatant disruption" of regional security and stability.
