Taiwan's military is on alert after spotting a new wave of Chinese ships and aircraft near its borders, a sign that Beijing's pressure campaign around the island continues.

• Taiwan's defense ministry tracked 8 Chinese warships and 4 Chinese government ships operating nearby over a one-day period.
• It also detected 3 Chinese military aircraft flying into airspace near northern and southwestern Taiwan.
• Taiwan responded by using its own aircraft, ships, and coast-based missile systems to monitor and track the activity.

Outlook: These incursions happen on a near-daily basis and are likely to continue as part of China's ongoing pressure on Taiwan, with no sign of near-term escalation or de-escalation.
