China flew an uncrewed combat drone around Taiwan, while a US Navy P-8A Poseidon maritime patrol and reconnaissance aircraft transited the Taiwan Strait. Taiwan's defence ministry said the drone showcased Beijing's ability to attack its fall-back east coast bases. The tensions around Taiwan have alarmed Washington and its allies, which have repeatedly expressed concern at China's behaviour and called for no forced change in the status quo.
