China - Taiwan Tensions: Beijing may be attempting to send strong signals about its preparation for an attack on Taiwan. China's People's Liberation Army (PLA) soldiers were demonstrated to be ready to battle "at any second" in the documentary commemorating the 96th anniversary of the PLA. China's army was seen promising to sacrifice themselves during the eight-episode documentary series Zhu Meng, or "chasing dreams," which was broadcast on state broadcaster CCTV, according to South China Morning Post.
As per the report, a pilot of a stealth fighter aircraft makes a suicide attack threat in the documentary. “My fighter would be my last missile, rushing towards the enemy if in a real battle, I had used up all my ammunition,” Li Peng, a J-20 pilot from Wang Hai Squadron, is heard saying.
The show featured footage of military exercises, particularly those around Taiwan, and included the personal narratives of numerous PLA soldiers. It stated that "the centennial goal of the PLA must be realised." A member of the PLA's amphibious assault group named Wang Xinjie was seen practicing a group charge "with fire cover from bombers, land and ship-launched missiles, rockets, and helicopters" while focusing on Joint Sword, an exercise that took place over Taiwan in April.
Beijing considers self-governed Taiwan to be a renegade province and maintains that it will never give up on using force to recapture it.
