China launched live-fire drills around Taiwan on Monday that it said would simulate a blockade of the self-ruled island's key ports, prompting Taipei to condemn Beijing's "military intimidation".
Taiwan said it had detected 89 Chinese military aircraft near its shores on Monday, the highest number in a single day since October 2024. It also said it had detected 28 warships and coastguard vessels.
