A: Hey! Did you hear about the drills near Taiwan? It's all over the news.

B: No way! What's happening?

A: China's military is doing big exercises, called “Justice Mission 2025.” They started yesterday.

B: Oh wow. Are they close to Taiwan?

A: Really close! They’re doing live ammunition drills tomorrow. It’s a bit scary, right?

B: Yeah, that sounds intense. I heard they’re closing airspace too.

A: Exactly! Seven areas are restricted. Lots of flights will be affected. Over 100,000 passengers!

B: That's a lot of people! Is this about President Lai? The one Beijing doesn’t like?

A: Pretty much. China's saying it’s a warning against “Taiwan Independence.” And also about the US sending weapons to Taiwan.

B: So, a message to both Lai and Trump, huh?

A: Looks that way. Hopefully, things stay calm.
