In Taiwan, alarm about the wave of Chinese missile tests | News in brief

Taiwan’s Ministry of Defense says it detected “several waves of test launches” in China’s Inner Mongolia, about 2,000 kilometers away from Taiwan.

The air defense forces of democratically ruled Taiwan are on high alert, according to its Ministry of Defense.

China considers Taiwan a rebel province and has often said it will eventually take over the island.

China’s Ministry of Defense did not respond to Reuters’ requests for comment on the matter.
