According to this Weibo post, the video is not at all filmed recently. It's known that the roof of the building was red back in 2016, now the roof (actually the whole building) used more of a camouflage colour. Also, the troops there are using the new uniforms, contrasting the uniforms in the video. We don't know when exactly the garrison repainted the roof, but it's definitely not recent.

What's funny is that they don't even do their research before pushing the propaganda. CCTV actually went to the garrison to do a program published on August 22nd, this year. Only if they check that!

Additionally, they also missed the plentiful of videos on the most popular Chinese video sharing platform (Bilibili) shot by Chinese civilians, showing that the garrison has now camouflaged their buildings. We know one video was published in August 2021, showing the new camouflage scheme, and that was a year ago. Only if they bother to check that!

More ironically, some netizens claimed that the video itself was shot and published by a mainland civilian. How pathetic do the propagandists have to be.....

RODMND follow up on Kinmen UAV incident

Because of the media stir the incident is causing today ROCMND came up with a further update. Besides saying next year they will be putting anti-drone weapons to the front line with priority to outlaying islands they also said this:

>此外，中華民國陸軍金門防衛指揮部表示，中共無人機侵擾，除了要測試我方應變作為之外，同時藉由剪輯片段影片，製造錯假訊息，散布於網路社群，企圖達到分化、詆毀國軍的目的，是認知作戰的一部分。

"In addition, ROCA Kinmen Defense Command said intrusion by Communist China's UAV, in addition to harassment and testing our response is also intended to capture footage intended for editing and dissemination of fake news online with the goal of dividing and denigrating ROC armed forces as part of cognitive warfare efforts."

We know this crisis is slowly ending when we went from discussion about shooting down Pelosi's plane and starting WW3 to stone age anti air.

As Einstein once said: "“I know not with what weapons World War III will be fought, but World War IV will be fought with sticks and stones"

Looks like we skipped WW3.

Who's they? ROCA? Do you think the TW authorities have a cost-effective way to deal with civilian drones from the mainland?

Apparently their anti-drone gun doesn’t work against DJIs…

Civilian drones from the mainland can literally blot out the sun over these ROCA outposts if they desire. My point stands, the TW authorities have no cost-effective way to deal with civilian drones from the mainland. Remember, China is the leading manufacturer of both civilian drones and anti-drone weapons.

Taiwan threatens Beijing with ‘counterattack’​

Taiwan has vowed to launch a forceful “counterattack” and “destroy enemy forces” in the event of an incursion by the Chinese military, as tensions continue to soar between Beijing and Taipei following a high-level visit by US officials to the island.

Speaking at a

on Wednesday, Taiwanese military officials outlined alleged “threats from the People’s Republic of China” and discussed a series of “large-scale exercises” carried out by the Chinese military earlier in August following a visit by US House speaker Nancy Pelosi and other officials.

“Some of the live-fire drills overlapped our country’s territorial seas… and endangered international waterways,” said defense spokesman Major General Sun Li-fang, claiming that the exercises threatened “international order.”

Taiwanese military operations and planning chief, Major General Lin Wen-huang, went on to say that the island reserves the right to respond in force if the People’s Liberation Army breaches its airspace or waters.

“For PLA aircraft and warships that entered our territorial sea and airspace within 12 nautical miles, our armed forces will exercise the right to self-defense and counterattack,” he told reporters.

“Our stance is that the closer the incursions are to Taiwan – the stronger our counter-measures will be,”he added, vowing to gradually deploy “naval and air forces, and coastal fire” to dispel the invading Chinese forces if they enter the 24 and 12 nautical mile zones claimed by Taiwan.

If Beijing decides to launch an amphibious assault, “we will use the geographical advantage of the Taiwan strait, and use our forces to stop enemy from launching, strike enemy while transiting, damage enemy while mending, and destroy enemy at beach,” the Taiwanese military official added.

Beijing, for its part, accused the island of hyping up a non-existent threat, with Foreign Ministry spokesman Zhao Lijan stating that there is “no point for the Taiwan authorities to exaggerate the tense atmosphere.”

China’s Foreign Ministry also weighed in on relations with the United States on Wednesday, saying that ceasing contacts with Taiwanese officials was an “an indispensable condition” for resuming cooperation on various issues.

“The US side should dispel the negative influence of Pelosi scuttling to Taiwan,” the ministry said in a statement.

Taiwan has repeatedly warned of a potential Chinese attack over the years, as Beijing considers the island as part of its own territory and insists foreign countries must not maintain bilateral ties with Taipei under the ‘One China’ principle. While Beijing carried out a flurry of unprecedented exercises in the wake of Pelosi’s visit, it has previously denied any intention of reclaiming Taiwan by force, insisting that a peaceful reunification was “inevitable.”

Keep salami slicing and you will see them inch closer and closer. Go on. Attack them. See what will happen.
