China raises military alert after Japan warship transits Taiwan Strait

China's military is on "high alert" after a Japanese warship sailed through the Taiwan Strait for the first time. Beijing has lodged a complaint with Japan, expressing concerns over the political intentions behind the move. The Japanese destroyer Sazanami's passage coincided with military vessels from New Zealand and Australia also transiting the strait. China confirmed it monitored these operations, stating they undermine its sovereignty and security. This development follows increased military activity in the region, including China's recent missile test and incursions into Japanese airspace. Japan's government has expressed serious concern over China's military actions and is enhancing its monitoring efforts.
