China's military said on Monday it is continuing drills in the seas and skies around Taiwan on Monday (Aug 8).

The Eastern Theater Command of China's People's Liberation Army said on social media Weibo that it will practise conducting anti-submarine attacks and sea raids.

The exercises were initially scheduled to last four days and end on Sunday, but neither Beijing nor Taipei confirmed their conclusion, though Taiwan's transport ministry said it had seen some evidence suggesting at least a partial drawdown.

Earlier on Monday, Chinese state news agency Xinhua issued a short report that did not mention the conclusion of the drills.

The exercises tested "tactics of systems warfare under information-based conditions, and honed and improved the capabilities to destroy crucial island targets with precision strikes", Xinhua quoted air force officer Zhang Zhi as saying.

This one is self-pawning. All this hostility is only cause exodus of more factories and funds from China which was the primary purpose of Pelosi's trip. To force manufacturing out of China.

The more luan China and Taiwan is, the better for the USA.

China is making the same mistake as Russia did with Ukraine. Instability in your backyard is self-pawning.

Waiting for US Navy & Air Force troops to come to the rescue but I doubt US armed forces will want to fight with PRC armed forces directly, without getting Taiwan as the desired battlefield (just like Ukraine) for the proxy war first.........

Can afford? China already running out of money. Rural banks can't pay depositors, developers no money to complete projects. Yes, there is reserves, but the reserves might have been pledged as security for dollar loans. Bond prices plunged, but the loans still need to be paid in full plus rising interests.
