  "account": "Taiwan's military authorities have analyzed that China is learning lessons from the Ukrainian war and the US-Israeli-Iran war to enhance its control over the surrounding sea and air domains. The Taiwanese Defense Ministry's annual report on China's military threats stated that China is studying the effectiveness of deploying cost-effective drones in the Ukrainian war, using them for reconnaissance and attacks. The report also mentioned that China is paying attention to the impact of using cheap drones in large numbers on existing power projection tactics. Furthermore, the analysis of the Israel-Iran war highlighted issues such as rapid ammunition consumption, missile defense burdens, industrial mobilization, and coalition fragility. The Taiwanese Defense Ministry assessed that China has also strengthened its military pressure on Taiwan. The report noted that China has been increasing the focus on exercises in recent years to cut off external maritime traffic routes through \"joint blockade and control,\" including the deployment of military aircraft, ships, and maritime surveillance buoys to surround and encircle Taiwan, creating a more advantageous environment for a potential invasion. However, China reportedly lacks the capability for a large-scale amphibious invasion, with the primary goal being the \"unprecedented dismantling\" of Taiwan's command and control system and air defense capabilities during the initial stages of an invasion. The report classified the potential for \"elimination of top-ranking Chinese military officials\" as a source of concern, citing recent dismissals of Vice-Chairman Wu Qian of the Central Military Commission and Senior Political Counselor of the Central Military Commission, as well as the ongoing investigation of Central Military Commission Vice-Chairman Li Zuoshan and Deputy Chief of the General Logistics Department in January. The Chinese National People's Congress Standing Committee officially expelled Li Zuoshan and Lv Jianli from their military ranks in December. With only Party Secretary and Deputy Chief of the Central Military Commission, Xi Jinping and Vice-Chairman Li Zuoshan, the five-member Central Military Commission is now a two-man operation.",
