China says the country is carrying out new military drills in the Yellow and Bohai seas after a barrage of exercises that encircled Taiwan in recent days.
The initial exercises were triggered by Beijing's fury at a visit to Taipei by the US House Speaker, Nancy Pelosi.
Taiwan has accused China for practicing of an invasion of the self-ruled island, which Beijing demands as its own.
On Sunday a senior Chinese military analyst said, China would now conduct "regular" military exercises near Taiwan.
China sees Taiwan as a breakaway province that will eventually be under Beijing's control. But Taiwan is a self-ruled island that sees itself as distinct from the mainland.
