China is significantly increasing maritime pressure around Taiwan, with a record number of Chinese vessels detected near the island as Taipei moves to strengthen its defenses.
Taiwan’s Coast Guard says 244 Chinese vessels were detected around the main island in July, averaging nearly eight ships per day. The figure represents a sharp increase from 55 vessels in June and 30 in May.
The surge has raised concerns among Taiwanese officials and analysts over whether China’s growing maritime presence could be more than a show of strength, including possible preparations for undersea warfare, maritime pressure or a future blockade.
Another major concern is China’s military-civil fusion strategy, under which civilian maritime assets can potentially be requisitioned for national defense purposes. Analysts warn that commercial vessels could provide additional transport capacity during a potential military operation.
Meanwhile, Taiwan is strengthening its own defenses. The island’s opposition-controlled parliament rejected a proposed $6.6 billion special drone budget, instead approving approximately $1.26 billion annually for military drones, amounting to around $7.6 billion over six years through regular budgets.
Taiwan has also conducted a major military exercise involving more than 5,000 reservists across two brigades, highlighting Taipei’s growing focus on preparing for potential threats.
The tensions stem from Beijing’s claim that Taiwan is part of China and its refusal to rule out the use of force to take control of the self-governed island. Taiwan rejects Beijing’s sovereignty claims and maintains that the People’s Republic of China has never governed Taiwan.

But the strategy faces a major obstacle: China, Iran’s biggest oil customer. Beijing has warned it could retaliate against U.S. measures targeting Chinese companies involved in Iranian trade.

Hirosaki Castle in northern Japan is moving back to its original site after being relocated for earthquake repairs 11 years ago. Using ropes and rollers, 1,800 people manually moved the structure several metres over the weekend using a technique known as hikiya, whereby entire structures are moved without being dismantled. Thousands of volunteers are set to move the structure a total of 5 metres (16.4ft) in a symbolic, community-building effort, with the remaining 73 metres (240ft) to be carried out using machinery by the end of the year.

The anti-corruption campaign has been President Xi Jinping’s signature policy since he rose to power in the autumn of 2012. Xi has linked fighting corruption to the Communist Party’s ability to stay in power and, more than a decade on, the campaign continues apace.
The South China Morning Post took a deep dive into the cases of the top officials, known as “tigers”, brought down between 2013 and 2025 to see what those investigations could tell us about the crusade. Most of these officials were at least vice-ministers and all were investigated by the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection (CCDI) – China’s top anti-corruption watchdog.

China’s ambitious Chang’e 7 mission to explore the Moon’s south pole and search for water ice has been postponed from its expected launch window. The robotic mission is designed to investigate one of the most scientifically valuable regions on the lunar surface, including areas near Shackleton Crater. With no confirmed new launch date, speculation is growing over when China will resume its latest lunar exploration push. The mission also highlights the intensifying global race to understand and eventually use frozen water believed to exist inside permanently shadowed lunar craters.
