China vents fury at Philippines after Marcos congratulates Taiwan's election winner | Oneindia News
China has strongly reacted to the Philippines' congratulatory message to Taiwan's President-elect, leading to the summoning of the Philippine ambassador.
This move comes a day after Filipino President Ferdinand Marcos extended his congratulations to Taiwanese President-elect Lai Ching-te on his recent election victory.
The blunt remarks from Beijing, cautioning Manila "not to play with fire," are expected to escalate tensions between the two nations, already engaged in disputes over territorial claims in the South China Sea.
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.
