🌊 China Launches Amphibious Assault Drills in South China Sea
China’s People’s Liberation Army launched large-scale amphibious assault drills in the South China Sea on June 27 under the Eastern Theater Command.
Training included air-cushion landing craft operations, live-fire wave assaults, and ship-to-shore maneuvers under “complex conditions,” according to footage released on social media.
The exercises follow recent Australia–UK freedom of navigation operations in the region and are viewed as a clear signal of China’s expanding capability to conduct offshore amphibious landings far from its home coast.
