The People's Liberation Army's Eastern Theater Command announced late on Tuesday night that it had started a series of joint operations in the air and waters surrounding Taiwan starting on Tuesday evening amid the provocative visit to Taiwan by United States House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.
Senior Colonel Shi Yi, the command's spokesman, said in a statement that its naval and air forces will carry out joint exercises and training to the north, southwest and southeast of Taiwan. Meanwhile, long-range strike drills will take place in the Taiwan Straits and ballistic missiles will be fired into waters to the east of Taiwan, the spokesman added.
The operations are intended to act as a deterrent to the serious escalations made recently by the US on the Taiwan question and serve as a warning to "Taiwan independence" forces, he said.
