Taiwan raises alert level after detecting missile launches from China

Taiwan's Defence Ministry is on high alert after detecting multiple missile launches from inland China. This follows China's recent successful test of an intercontinental ballistic missile. The missile firings were reported from regions in China over 2,000 km from Taiwan. Taiwan's military is closely monitoring the situation and has heightened its air defense readiness. China's military claims its activities around Taiwan are legitimate and will continue. Taiwan has previously raised alarms over increased Chinese military drills near the island.
