Renewed Chinese Military Activity Near Taiwan Post-APEC Summit

Taiwan reports renewed Chinese military activity with nine aircraft crossing the sensitive median line of the Taiwan Strait and warships carrying out 'combat readiness patrols'.
Chinese military activity had leveled off during the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) summit, where Chinese leader Xi Jinping met U.S. President Joe Biden.
The aircraft involved included Su-30 and J-10 fighters, as well as early warning and electronic warfare aircraft, accompanying Chinese warships.
Taiwan's government, which rejects Beijing's sovereignty claims, has repeatedly offered talks with China.
Taiwan holds presidential and parliamentary elections on Jan. 13, with the island's fraught relations with China an important topic on the campaign trail.
