Chinese Military Aircraft Enter Taiwan Ahead of Blinken Beijing Visit
More than a dozen Chinese military aircraft and four naval vessels were detected around Taiwan on Friday morning, according to defense officials.
The latest border move by Beijing came ahead of US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken’s trip to China, scheduled for February 5-6.
Earlier, the Pentagon claimed to have discovered a spy balloon over the northern US. In comments cited by the US media, an unnamed senior US defense official said Washington was “confident” that the balloon belonged to China, while Beijing has since claimed it was a "civilian airship intended for meteorological research".
