China fires ballistic missiles near Taiwan in large military drills after Pelosi's visit
CA, 05 Aug 2022
Tensions keep rising in Asia as China conducts its largest military drills yet around Taiwan.
China's military has called the operation a "deterrent to collusion" between the U.S. and Taiwan, seemingly in response to U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's visit to the small nation that China regards as its own.
The drills were conducted in six areas surrounding Taiwan, three of which overlap the island's territorial waters, and are much closer than during a similar flare-up in the mid-1990s.
Global’s Redmond Shannon reports on the escalation, including a slew of new ballistic missile launches.
