🇺🇸🇨🇳🇹🇼⚡- BREAKING: US intelligence warns China could seize Taiwan’s outlying islands in the Taiwan Strait.
There are five island chains administered by Taiwan in the Strait, Pratas, Penghu, Kinmen, Wuqiou, and Lienchiang (Matsu). US intel warns Kinmen and Matsu are particularly vulnerable to Chinese capture.
"China could seize Taiwan’s smaller outlying islands as a tactic to intimidate the government in Taipei. However, an all-out invasion of Taiwan in 2025 is unlikely, but China could scale up the attacks on the democratic island’s smaller outposts.
China will use the attack on Taiwan's Islands to test the US’s commitment to Taiwan’s defense," - The Telegraph, British outlet, citing a US Defense Intelligence Agency, DIA, report.
Note, the US had finally admitted the presence of US troops in Taiwan, and yesterday Taipei received the Governor of Guam. On Monday, a congressional delegation from mainland US paid the island a visit.

In view of this, the regulator has cautioned investors not to rely on such investment tips / advice received through social media platforms. It has also said investors should exercise utmost caution while taking investment decisions while dealing in the securities market. Telegram has gained a reputation as the “secure” communications app in the post-Soviet states, but whenever you make choices about your digital security, it’s important to start by asking yourself, “What exactly am I securing? And who am I securing it from?” These questions should inform your decisions about whether you are using the right tool or platform for your digital security needs. Telegram is certainly not the most secure messaging app on the market right now. Its security model requires users to place a great deal of trust in Telegram’s ability to protect user data. For some users, this may be good enough for now. For others, it may be wiser to move to a different platform for certain kinds of high-risk communications. Ukrainian forces have since put up a strong resistance to the Russian troops amid the war that has left hundreds of Ukrainian civilians, including children, dead, according to the United Nations. Ukrainian and international officials have accused Russia of targeting civilian populations with shelling and bombardments.
