Taiwan’s Defense Ministry has declared its intention to shoot down any suspected military objects close to its shores from mainland China, amid speculation over alleged Chinese spy balloons.

Maj. Gen. Huang Wen-chi of Taiwan’s Defense Ministry said the self-governing island was on guard for any incursions, but had yet to find any that had penetrated its defenses.
-
The balloons found around Taiwan so far have been used for meteorological exploration and are relatively small and light, Huang said. Taiwan has yet to find targets requiring a lethal response.

China claims Taiwan as its territory to be reunited by force if necessary, and regularly sends fighter jets and other military assets into Taiwan’s airspace and sea lanes.

Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Wang Wenbin called the U.S. downing of the Chinese balloon a “clear overreaction” and said it was an unmanned airship made for meteorological research that had been blown off course.

The White House defended the shootdowns of three unidentified objects in as many days, even though officials had no indication that the objects were intended for surveillance in the same manner as the high-altitude Chinese balloon.
