The annual Han Kuang exercises have been underway in Taiwan since the weekend. For the 37th time since 1984, the island nation is rehearsing a military emergency. The main aim is to simulate possible war scenarios as realistically as possible. That’s why during the five-day exercises, fighter jets land on roads, and tanks roll through residential areas (like here in the city of Hualien). Han Kuang is primarily directed against the threat posed by the People’s Republic of China.
