Taiwan’s war games help prepare for possible Chinese invasion

Important Takeaways:

  • Taiwan’s main airport becomes battleground for simulated Chinese invasion
  • Taiwan’s Taoyuan International Airport became the scene of a simulated Chinese invasion on Wednesday for the first time ever as the island’s military conducted an anti-takeover drill to fend off any possible attack from Beijing.
  • The drill was designed to test the Taiwanese military’s cross-branch coordination and emergency response capabilities during a simulated Chinese invasion, the Ministry of National Defense previously said.
  • With military helicopters in the sky and soldiers on the tarmac, the drill at Taiwan’s busiest international gateway reflects how Taipei is preparing for multiple scenarios in the face of fears over China’s increased military intimidation – concerns which have amplified since Russia’s invasion of Ukraine began last year.
  • China’s ruling Communist Party claims the self-governing democracy of Taiwan as its territory despite never having controlled it, and has spent decades trying to isolate it diplomatically.
  • The drills, which lasted for 30 minutes, wrapped up as the Taiwanese military practiced clearing out residual enemy forces, brandishing Taiwan’s flag in the end to signify their simulated successful defense of the airport.

Important Takeaways:

  • Taiwan issues wartime survival handbook
  • Taiwan’s military published a handbook advising civilians on how to prepare for a potential Chinese invasion, including where to find bomb shelters and how to stockpile emergency supplies.
  • Russia’s recent invasion of Ukraine has also heightened fears that China might one day follow through on threats to annex its smaller neighbor.
  • The 28-page guide contains information which “the general public can use as an emergency response guideline in a military crisis or natural disaster,” defense ministry spokesman Sun Li-fang said during an introduction at an online press conference.
  • It includes information on basic survival skills for the public during air raids, massive fires, building collapses, power outages and natural disasters.
  • Unlike South Korea, the Philippines and Japan, Taiwan is not a treaty ally with the United States.
