China is capable of cutting off Taiwan's key transport links, the island's defence ministry warns as tensions between Beijing and Taipei reach the highest level in years
Taiwan reported in October 148 Chinese air force planes in the southern and southwestern theatre of the zone over a four-day period.

That includes precision strikes by long-range missiles on targets in China, deployment of coastal minefields as well as boosting reserve training.
