"Taiwan's Strategic Southern Coast: Military Conducts Live Fire Drills"

Taiwan's military conducted live fire drills on its southern coast, simulating the repelling of invading forces. The drills involved firing U.S.-made TOW anti-tank missiles from highly mobile armoured cars to destroy targets near the shoreline. China, which considers Taiwan its own territory, has increased military pressure in recent years. Taiwan's upcoming Han Kuang exercises will focus on combating a blockade and preserving the fighting ability of its forces. Taiwan rejects Beijing's sovereignty claims and vows to defend its freedom and democracy.
