Taiwan MND Detects 16 PLA Aircraft Sorties, 10 PLAN Vessels

Taiwan's Ministry of National Defense detected 16 sorties of Chinese military aircraft, 10 PLAN vessels, and 2 official ships operating around Taiwan on March 25. Of the 16 sorties, 13 crossed the median line and entered Taiwan's southwestern and eastern ADIZ — a notable single-day spike compared to just 3 sorties the previous day. ROC Armed Forces monitored the situation and responded. Activity remains elevated ahead of the Trump-Xi summit, now postponed by 5–6 weeks due to the Iran conflict.
