Source reporting describes China’s late-2025 “Justice Mission 2025” drills as emphasizing blockade, port-seizure, and maritime strike scenarios aimed at deterring external intervention. Taiwan’s response highlights a seven-tier perimeter defense and expanded asymmetric training with U.S. cooperation, sustaining a heightened readiness posture into January 2026.
Per the source, China’s late-December 2025 “Justice Mission 2025” drills marked a major escalation in the scale and proximity of blockade-oriented exercises around Taiwan amid near-continuous activity throughout 2025. The pattern suggests sustained operational conditioning and coercive disruption capacity, while endurance and blockade sustainability remain key constraints to monitor.
China’s PLA conducted Dec. 29–30 drills closer to Taiwan’s coast than recent exercises, described by analysts as a major rehearsal for blocking key air and sea routes. The activity also appears intended to deter external intervention while testing coercive effects such as civilian aviation disruption.
