Taiwan’s Ministry of Defense has issued a warning about China’s growing military activities around the island, highlighting concerns over a possible sudden attack. Since 2022, Beijing has conducted at least six large-scale military exercises near Taiwan while developing new weapons and employing advanced technologies, including artificial intelligence, to target Taiwan’s cybersecurity. China is reportedly using “hybrid warfare” strategies to undermine public trust in Taiwan’s government, reduce support for defense spending, and create psychological pressure. Grey-zone tactics, such as coast guard patrols and maritime surveillance, are also being employed to maintain persistent pressure without direct confrontation. The report emphasizes that China may transform routine exercises into actual combat operations, potentially catching Taiwan and its allies unprepared. Additionally, civilian cargo ships are being repurposed for military transport, and specialized coastal landing equipment is being developed. China has not commented on the report, while Taiwan insists its future is determined solely by its people.
