Taiwan to deploy drone defence systems after rock-throwing video emerges
4.完整新聞內文:
TAIPEI, Aug 25 (Reuters) - Taiwan will next year begin deploying drone
defence systems on its offshore islands, the defence ministry said, after
footage emerged of Taiwanese soldiers throwing stones at a Chinese drone that
buzzed a guard post near China's coast.
台灣軍人向中國無人機丟石頭影片曝光後,國防部長表示台灣將在明年開始部署無人機防禦系統。
Taiwan has complained of repeated Chinese drone incursions near its offshore
islands as part of China's war games and drills after U.S. House Speaker
Nancy Pelosi's visit to Taipei this month, which infuriated Beijing.
自裴洛西訪台後,做為軍演的一部份,台灣離島開始常遭中國無人機騷擾。
China claims democratically governed Taiwan as its own territory, despite the
strong objections of the government in Taipei.
The brief video clip, circulated first on Chinese social media before being
picked up by Taiwanese media, shows two soldiers throwing stones at a drone
that got near their guard post.
In a statement late Wednesday, the defence command of Kinmen, a group of
Taiwan-controlled islands that sit opposite China's Xiamen and Quanzhou
cities, said the incident occurred on Aug. 16 on Erdan islet, and confirmed
the soldiers had thrown stones to see off what it called a civilian drone.
Taiwan's defence ministry said in a separate statement that starting next
year it will deploy anti-drone systems, which will first be placed on the
smaller islands.
"Officers and soldiers at all levels will continue to implement vigilance in
accordance with the principle of "not escalating conflicts or causing
disputes," it added.
China has not commented on the footage, which has received millions of views
on Chinese social media with users making fun of it.
中國官方對此影片沒有評論,但影片已在中國媒體瘋傳訕笑。
It has also triggered heated discussion in Taiwan, with some social media
users calling the incident a "humiliation" for the island's armed forces and
urging the defence ministry to step up its countermeasures to the
increasingly frequent drone incursions.
The Kinmen defence command said the footage was another example of China's
"cognitive warfare" against Taiwan and an attempt to "denigrate" its armed
forces.
Wang Ting-yu, a senior lawmaker of Taiwan's ruling Democratic Progressive
Party, described the incident as "very serious" and questioned why Taiwan's
defence ministry did not respond to the incursion.
"The drone was flying on top of our soldiers on guard but there's zero
response," he said. "If you just let them come and go freely, this was
negligence of duty."
Taiwan has controlled Kinmen, along with the Matsu islands further up China's
coast, since the defeated Republic of China government fled to Taipei after
losing a civil war with Mao Zedong's Communists in 1949.
At its closest point, Chinese-controlled territory is only a few hundred
metres from Kinmen.
