Since a fatal accident involving Chinese fishermen, China has stepped up its coast guard activity in waters Taiwan considers restricted.
China's coast guard on Friday revealed it had entered restricted waters around an outlying Taiwanese island county in the Taiwan Strait, just off China's Fujian Province.A formation of ships 'carried out regular law enforcement inspections in waters near Kinmen in accordance with the law,' the agency said without specifying the number of vessels.
The boat had been fleeing Taiwan's coast guard after allegedly operating in Taiwanese waters.Taiwan has empowered its coast guard to search and seize foreign-flagged vessels that enter prohibited waters or that remain in restricted waters after being issued two warnings to leave.Beijing condemned its neighbor after the deaths of the men and just days later the Chinese coast guard boarded a Taiwanese tour boat sailing near Chinese waters, drawing a protest from Taipei.
