Satellite image of an area in Inner Mongolia showing what appears to be a mock-up of a key government area in Taipei, Taiwan dated December 2022.Image © Planet Labs PBCSatellite images show China's mock-up of Taiwan's presidential office at a desert training site.It is not the first time China has built such mock ups, which indicate a readiness to use force.China has also built mock ups of US warships in the desert for apparent target practice.Out in the desert at a military training site, China has built a mock-up of a key area of Taiwan's capital city where the presidential office and other government buildings are located, satellite images show.The mock-up, like others before it, seems to indicate China's intentions and focus, though its use is uncertain.China often engages in aggressive and coercive behavior that alarms its neighbors, is pursuing a significant military build-up and modernization effort, and has never renounced the use of force as an option for achieving unification with Taiwan.Images of the mock target, located in the desert in the Alxa League area of northern China's Inner Mongolia, began circulating on social media earlier this week.
