War Fears EXPLODE as Chinese jets simulate missile attack on US carrier
The incident took place amid reported incursions into the airspace of neighboring Taiwan. A source from US and allied intelligence told the FT the Chinese aircraft remained more than 250 nautical miles from the US carrier and accompanying warships.
Beijing regards Taiwan, formed by the losing anti-communist side of the 1927-49 Chinese civil war, as an integral part of its territory. However the island is an American ally and has been strengthening its ties with the US over the past few years.
Chinese combat jets made two recent incursions into Taiwanese territory on January 23 and 24.
Analysts suggest the moves, which took place just days after Joe Biden’s inauguration, were designed to test the new US president. The first incursion consisted of 11 warplanes whilst 15 took part in the second. An American carrier battle group, formed around USS Theodore Roosevelt, is also in the area.

- Father God we come against the communist spirit working through the Chinese government that seeks to oppress other countries including the United States. We separate this controlling spirit from working any longer in individuals of the leadership in the name of Jesus Christ.
