China has launched military drills around Taiwan just days after the Taiwan President Tsai Ing-wen visited the United States.
She met with House Speaker Kevin McCarthy in a move that angered Beijing.
Taipei reported Saturday that more than seventy Chinese jets crossed the median line of the Taiwan Strait, the unofficial barrier between the two sides.
Chinese state media say the military is rehearsing an encirclement of the self-governing island which Beijing sees as a breakaway province.
