China launches ballistic missiles during Taiwan drills - BBC News

China has begun its biggest-ever military exercises in the seas around Taiwan.

Taiwan's defence ministry has said China has fired multiple ballistic missiles during a drill.

It comes after US politician Nancy Pelosi made a brief but controversial visit to Taiwan, which China regards as a breakaway province.

The drills are Beijing's main response, with Taiwan saying it amounts to a sea and air blockade.
