PLA expands regional ISR and military-intelligence activity

PLA reconnaissance, UAV, aircraft, and electronic-warfare activity around Taiwan's eastern flank suggests systematic collection on air bases, logistics routes, radar cycles, and reinforcement corridors, without establishing imminent attack intent. Separate South Korean prosecutions of former Chinese military personnel over alleged base-area wiretapping and communications interception provide a concrete parallel example of alleged military SIGINT and HUMINT activity.
