The Defense Ministry reported on Tuesday that the Taiyuan Satellite Launch Center in Shanxi, China launched another carrier rocket at 10:33 a.m. Its flight path passed through Taiwan’s eastern Air Defense Identification Zone (ADIZ) toward the ocean east of the Philippines.
The ministry stated that at the time the rocket breached ADIZ airspace, it had reached the outer atmosphere and would not be harmful to Taiwan. The Defense Ministry emphasized that the national military uses intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance systems to closely monitor relevant developments and provide appropriate vigilance and response.
