Tensions in East Asia are nearing a boiling point. Japan scrambled fighter jets after Russian and Chinese bombers flew a coordinated patrol near its airspace. The eight-hour operation involved nuclear-capable TU-95 and H-6 bombers, prompting Tokyo to label it a serious national security threat. This follows a similar incursion into South Korea’s air defence zone and radar lock incidents involving Japanese jets. As Japan builds a missile archipelago near Taiwan and ramps up its military readiness, Beijing responds with air shows and diplomatic aggression. Meanwhile, U.S. pressure on Japan to tone down its Taiwan stance adds to the strategic uncertainty.
