Twelve of the aircraft had crossed the median line of the Taiwan Strait or entered the island\u2019s air defense identification zone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In response, Taiwan\u2019s armed forces deployed aircraft, navy vessels and land-based missile systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In April, the Chinese military said it was&nbsp;<a
