The Chinese Military released video footage Sunday, showing heavy bombers and fighter jets apparently flying around Taiwan. Taiwan\u2019s defense ministry said 20 Chinese aircraft and 14 warships conducted missions around the Taiwan Strait on Saturday afternoon.<\/p>\n<p>China said the drills come in defense of its territorial integrity which it said was jeopardized by Pelosi\u2019s recent visit. Experts pointed out that Taiwan may struggle to secure military aid in case of a Chinese takeover.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><strong>\u201cTaiwan is not recognized as an independent country,\u201d said retired Air-Vice Marshal Sean Bell. \u201cIt\u2019s very close to China and as a result it seems highly unlikely that the west would come to the aid. It\u2019s very difficult to conclude through all of this that China feel even more emboldened by the results and the fallout from this exercise.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">China sends 20 more fighter jets and support aircraft near Taiwan joining 14 warships for an \u2018air-sea operation\u2019 in latest show of force. 158 Chinese warplanes have been launched over the past five days: Taiwan MoD<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Lucas Tomlinson (@LucasFoxNews) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/LucasFoxNews\/status\/1555889397807124481?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">August 6, 2022<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/BREAKING?src=hash&#038;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#BREAKING<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/CHINA?src=hash&#038;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#CHINA<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/TAIWAN?src=hash&#038;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#TAIWAN<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\ud83d\udd34 CHINA :<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/VIDEO?src=hash&#038;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#VIDEO<\/a> CHINESE TROOPS FIRED LIVE ARTILLERY SHELLS NEAR THE TAIWAN STRAIT DURING A MILITARY EXERCISE! <\/p>\n<p>While China maintains this is just an exercise, Taiwan has just scrambled fighter jets from the Chiayi Air Base. <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/BreakingNews?src=hash&#038;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#BreakingNews<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Military?src=hash&#038;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#Military<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/JuWSaKMTnN\">pic.twitter.com\/JuWSaKMTnN<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 loveworld (@LoveWorld_Peopl) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/LoveWorld_Peopl\/status\/1553498801771520000?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">July 30, 2022<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Taiwanese officials claimed the Chinese Military may be preparing for an \u201cinvasion\u201d of the island, but international experts believe a major conflict is still unlikely.
