Chinese navy ships briefly cross median line - Reuters

Around 10 Chinese navy ships briefly crossed the Taiwan Strait median line on Thursday morning, a Taiwan source briefed on the matter told news agency Reuters.

The median line is the informal dividing line in the Taiwan Strait between the Chinese mainland and Taiwan.

Taiwan has deployed missile systems to track Chinese air force activity near the median line and navy ships remain close to monitor Chinese navy activity, said the source, who declined to be identified.
