China Resumes Military Flights Near Taiwan
According to TSN.ua: China's air force has resumed operations near Taiwan after a two-week lull, with 26 aircraft detected in the past day. The last major activity in the area was recorded on February 25, when 30 planes were observed. Notably, no Chinese military flights were reported between February 27 and March 7.
Beijing has offered no explanation for the hiatus, raising questions among analysts. Possible reasons include a reassessment of pressure tactics toward Taiwan, preparations for U.S. President Donald Trump's scheduled visit on March 31, or internal developments within China's military leadership.

The resumption of flights underscores Beijing's continued military presence near Taiwan, which could have serious implications for security and stability in East Asia. Tensions between China and Taiwan remain high, and further actions may affect international relations—especially China's ties with the United States, given Trump's upcoming visit. Observers are closely monitoring the situation to assess possible scenarios of escalation or de-escalation.
