The Republic of China (RoC) Armed Forces have initiated conducting drills to boost operational preparedness to counter Chinese amphibious landings on Taiwan beaches in the event of a conflict.

According to Taiwan's state-owned Central News Agency (CNA), the RoC Navy's 151st Fleet and the RoC Marine Corps performed an amphibious landing drill near Kaohsiung's Sizihwan beach, which Taiwan identified as a potential landing point for Chinese forces in the event of a conflict.

The exercise – which was a simulation of a Chinese military beach landing – started with the deployment of three AAV7 amphibious landing vehicles from a Chung Ho-class tank landing vessel off the coast of Kaohsiung and protected by special forces-operated attack boats, the CNA said.
