The Liaoning aircraft carrier group is participating in the "Joint Sword-2024B" drills in areas to the east of Taiwan island, said a military spokesperson on Monday.
The Eastern Theater Command of the Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA) has deployed the Liaoning aircraft carrier group to conduct exercises, along with its army, navy, air force and rocket force troops, on vessel-aircraft collaboration, joint air control, and strikes on sea and land targets in the waters and airspace to the east of Taiwan, said Li Xi, spokesperson for the Eastern Theater Command.
The drills aim to test the joint combat capabilities of multiple services in integrated operations inside and outside the island chain, added the spokesperson.
The PLA Eastern Theater Command on Monday organized army, navy, air force and rocket force troops to conduct "Joint Sword-2024B" drills in the Taiwan Straits and the north, south and east of the island of Taiwan.
The drills are a powerful deterrent to the separatist activities of "Taiwan independence" elements and are legitimate and necessary actions to safeguard national sovereignty and national unity, Li said earlier.
