Presidential Elections Kick Off in Taiwan with Reports of Two More Chinese Spy Balloons | Oneindia
Taiwanese citizens voted amid heightened tension, facing warnings from China that the election's outcome could lead to war.
Beijing targeted front-runner Lai Ching-te, the current vice president, labeling him a "dangerous separatist." With China's military pressure escalating, the global community watches closely as the island's strategic importance amplifies.
Taiwan detected 37 Chinese military aircraft, including fighter jets and drones, near its airspace, with 35 crossing the median line of the Taiwan Strait. In response, Taiwan deployed aircraft, naval vessels, and shore-based missiles. The incident follows recent Chinese military drills and heightened defense patrols. China frames these maneuvers as defense measures, raising tensions as Beijing views Taiwan as a breakaway province, intensifying regional concerns over potential conflict.

In a groundbreaking move, Beijing has successfully launched an intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) into the Pacific Ocean for the first time since 1980. This "routine" test, which China claims is not directed at any specific country, marks a significant shift in its military capabilities and strategy. Analysts suggest the missile is likely a Dong Feng-41, capable of reaching up to 15,000 kilometers. The launch has raised concerns among neighboring nations, highlighting China's growing assertiveness on the global stage.
