The Ministry of National Defense stated November 4th that since 11:08 AM, it has detected 14 sorties of various types of main and auxiliary fighter jets and drones, including Chinese J-10, J-11, J-16, KJ-500 early warning aircraft, and Y-20 tanker aircraft, sailing out to sea.
Among them, twelve sorties crossed the median line and its extension line, entering the airspace of northern, central, and southwestern Taiwan. They cooperated with Chinese warships, harassing the surrounding air and sea areas under the guise of so-called “joint combat readiness patrols.”
The National Army closely monitored the situation using joint intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance methods, and dispatched mission aircraft, ships, and shore-based missile systems to respond appropriately.
