New Delhi, 31 August 2022

As per news report of BBC, it is not clear who was flying the drones, but all three were seen flying back towards the Chinese mainland, said Taiwan's defence ministry. It comes as Taipei has over the past weeks complained of Chinese drones flying close to Taiwan-controlled islets near the Chinese coast. It is the first time warning shots have been fired at such drones. The Kinmen Defense Command said three civilian drones were spotted on Thursday evening in Dadan, Erdan and Shiyu - three Kinmen County islets that are just a few kilometres away from the Chinese city of Xiamen.
