Reuters: Chinese air force approaches Taiwan for fourth time this week, Taiwan's military says

TAIPEI (Reuters) - China’s air force approached Taiwan on Friday for the fourth time in four days, Taiwan’s military said, as China steps up manoeuvres near the island that Beijing claims as its own territory.

Taiwan’s air force said the J-10 fighter jet was involved in the approach but did not say whether only one aircraft or more had entered Taiwan’s air defence identification zone to the island’s southwest around midday (0400 GMT).

The Chinese air force was given a verbal warning to leave, and Taiwanese jets “responded”, Taiwan’s air force said, without giving further details.

The aircraft then withdrew and the situation returned to normal, it said in a brief statement.

Stop buying Chinese products

Lobby amazon to label products where they come from

Also food inspectors should look at the products being sold on amazon coming from China. Pure poison
