💨 Abstract
China's military intimidation of Taiwan is now complemented by small boat crossings from mainland Chinese citizens. Taiwan's coast guard has recorded five incidents involving 38 individuals. One notable case involved a man planting a Chinese flag on a Taiwanese beach, which was posted on Douyin. These incidents occur amid rising tensions, with Taiwan's president labeling China as an enemy and China conducting frequent military exercises. The small boats evade radar detection, posing a challenge for Taiwan's coastal security.
