Taiwan's Coast Guard Administration says it repelled four Chinese official vessels that entered restricted waters near the outlying Kinmen Islands. Officials say the ships entered under the guise of a routine patrol, a tactic Taiwan flags as part of Beijing's gray-zone activity, and left after about two hours of warnings. The intrusion occurred Wednesday, coinciding with the start of Taiwan's Han Kuang military exercise.
