China's military has launched live-fire exercises around Taiwan in response to President Tsai Ing-wen's international tour, which included stops in the US. The exercises will take place off the coast of Fujian province, facing Taiwan, over the course of 12 days. This move is seen as an escalation of tensions between China and Taiwan.
