China,'more patrols around the islands of Taiwan' - Breaking news. China will intensify coast guard patrols in the Kinmen, islands a few miles from Fujian and controlled by Taiwan.
The move, destined to create new tensions between Beijing and Taipei, is in response to Wednesday's accident near Beiding (Kinmen) island. Two Chinese fishermen lost their lives when their boat capsized while being chased by the Taiwanese coast guard. Reproduction rights reserved by ANSA.
