China has sent dozens of warplanes towards Taiwan for a second day of military drills, launched in retaliation to the island’s president, Tsai Ing-wen, meeting the US House speaker during a brief visit to the US.

Late on Saturday, Taiwan’s Ocean Affairs Council, which runs the coast guard, put out footage on its YouTube channel showing one of its ships shadowing a Chinese warship, though did not give an exact location.

Taiwan’s defence ministry said it was monitoring the movements of China’s missile forces, as the US said it too was on alert
