www.abc.net.au
A classified US intelligence report, seen by the ABC, says vessels have been modified to carry tanks and partake in amphibious operations in what Taiwan considers part of China's "expansionist intentions".

A classified US military intelligence report seen by the ABC says China is rapidly building up the country’s commercial ferry fleet to prepare for an invasion of Taiwan.

The report dates from earlier this year and was prepared by members of the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) for the Pentagon.

The US intelligence says the large ocean-going vessels have been modified to carry tanks and partake in amphibious operations.

China is building more than 70 of the large vessels by the end of 2026.

    Holy shit dude, I cannot possibly hold your hand through all of this. Educate yourself on HOW Japan has invaded China (backed by the US), and you will get your answers. Any country invading China will follow the same game plan. GOOD LUCK!

      You can’t have that attitude in a conversation and expect it to go well. If your mission is to educate, you have to be kind and patient. All your last posts have been super arrogant and condescending. Nobody wants to be treated like this
