The People’s Liberation Army of China (PLA) has reported strikes against targets as part of an exercise in the Taiwan Strait.
The PLA Eastern Combat Command Zone on its official WeChat account reported successful shootings near Taiwan.
“At around 13:00 on August 4, long-range live firing and accurate strikes were carried out in the Taiwan Strait on targeted areas in the eastern Taiwan Strait, and the expected results were achieved,” the publication said.
Recall that the PLA maneuvers in six areas of the Taiwan Strait began on August 4 at 12:00 (7:00 Moscow time) and will continue until Sunday. Large-scale exercises of various branches of the Chinese army were a response to the decision of the Taiwan authorities to accept the speaker of the US House of Representatives, Nancy Pelosi. Beijing has not officially approved Pelosi’s visit.
