TAIPEI (Reuters) -Taiwan's defence ministry warned on Tuesday of a possible
"sharp increase" in military tensions after reporting renewed Chinese military activity including fighter jets crossing the sensitive median line of the Taiwan Strait.
The ministry said that on Tuesday morning it spotted 12 Chinese military aircraft in its air defence identification zone, of which seven crossed the median line - six J-10 fighters and a single drone. The median line had for years served as an unofficial barrier between the two sides, until China's air force began regularly crossing it a year ago.
