PLA nighttime drills show troops ‘ready for surprises’ over Taiwan

Beijing’s top uniformed military official oversees latest exercises as PLA intensifies nighttime training, with Taiwan following suit.




The People’s Liberation Army’s (PLA) stronger emphasis on nighttime training signals readiness for “surprises”, including in a possible war scenario over Taiwan, military experts say.
Beijing’s most senior uniformed military official, Zhang Youxia, oversaw the latest such drills, which were held earlier this week in Hebei, a province bordering the capital.

Zhang is first-ranked vice-chairman of the Central Military Commission, led by President Xi Jinping. He is also a member of the Politburo, Beijing’s top decision-making body.
