On day 3 of Taiwan's annual Han Kuang military exercises, flights in and out of the country's main airport were briefly closed for a drill simulating the defense of critical transportation infrastructure. Lawmakers from Taiwan's ruling party have weighed in on a dispute over the body armor issued to the country's armed forces, saying it does not meet U.S. military standards. And in Taiwan's first trial tried under the new citizen justice system, there has been criticism of the sentence given to a woman convicted of murdering her abusive husband. Also:
- Typhoon Doksuri is bearing down on Taiwan, bringing flooding and power cuts to parts of the country's south.
- The owner of an illegal factory which burned down causing the death of two people has had his sentence cut, throwing a spotlight on the country's tens of thousands of illegal factories operating on farmland.
- A cafe in Tokyo is taking the phrase "farm to table" to a new level with its dishes garnished with insects.
