Taiwan Begins 10-Day Han Kuang Military Drills to Prepare for Possible China Invasion
Taiwan has commenced its annual 10-day Han Kuang military exercises to prepare for a potential Chinese invasion. The drills focus on sustaining defense operations, countering China's grey-zone tactics, and testing urban resilience, including simulated internet disruptions. This year features the largest mobilization of over 5,000 reservists, new US-inspired communication methods, and the deployment of recently acquired M1A2T Abrams tanks. Exercises will take place across multiple cities, reflecting Taiwan's emphasis on civil defense amid ongoing regional tensions.
