BBC: China-Taiwan: Aircraft carrier 'seals off' island on third day of drills
China has finished three days of military drills around Taiwan, which included "sealing off" the island and simulating targeted strikes.
Taiwan said it had detected jets to its east, while China said its Shandong aircraft carrier had taken part.
Beijing began the exercises on Saturday after Taiwan President Tsai Ing-wen met the US House Speaker in California.
After the drills ended, Taiwan's defence ministry said it would not stop strengthening its combat preparedness.
The drills have not been as big as those that followed Nancy Pelosi's visit to Taipei last August.
