The People’s Liberation Army has released footage of a coastal strike exercise simulating precision attacks on a mock liquefied natural gas (LNG) terminal – a drill devised clearly with Taiwan’s largest such facility in mind.

The video, released the same day, showed PLA ground forces firing 16 live 300mm rockets at a target zone 70km (44 miles) away.

The mock target had six white round areas that mirrored the six semisubterranean fuel storage tanks at the Yongan LNG receiving station at the port in Kaohsiung, on Taiwan’s southern coast.

The drill was meant to test the PLA forces’ ability to enforce a blockade and sent a message about the military’s ability to block the island’s energy imports.
