Russian Warships Enter Taiwan Waters, Escorted by Jets

Two Russian warships were spotted off the eastern coast of Taiwan, prompting the Taiwanese military to send aircraft and ships to monitor the situation. The warships sailed in a northerly direction before departing from Taiwan's response zone. Taiwan activated shore-based missile systems in response, but no further details were provided. This comes as Taiwan has joined the US and its allies in imposing sanctions on Russia following its invasion of Ukraine.
