Original Note:
This tweet is exaggerated. There is no evidence of the “200 ships” claim. Since the U.S. shot down a suspected Chinese balloon on Feb 4, 2022, China has increased its military presence near the Taiwan Straight, but not at the scale this tweet claims. https://www.upi.com/amp/Top_News/World-News/2023/02/13/Taiwan-China-Taiwan-Strait-South-China-Sea-naval-drills/6221676276651/ https://www.foxnews.com/world/taiwan-says-dozens-chinese-spy-craft-cross-airspace-tensions-flare-us.amp
