However, major Japanese airlines -- Japan’s ANA Holdings Inc and Japan Airlines Co Ltd-- are still operating flights to Taipei as normal, despite the Japanese Defence Ministry confirming that five of the missiles fired by China landed in Japan’s Exclusive Economic Zone off Hateruma on Thursday. Similarly, Emirates -- one of two flag carriers of the United Arab Emirates -- also chose to continue their flights to Taiwan. Meanwhile, Hong Kong’s Cathay Pacific Airways Ltd said its flights were avoiding designated airspace zones around Taiwan. The major development came as the Chinese government had warned Taiwan of a dramatic situation for allowing US Speaker Nancy Pelosi to visit Taipei despite a staunch warning. After Pelosi left Taiwan, China announced to conduct its largest-ever military drills near Taiwan borders to showcase its military might.
In wake of the development, Taiwan announced to cancel flights on Thursday. Also, China issued a warning to ships and planes to avoid the region where the Chinese soldiers are conducting military drills. Subsequently, at least 40 flights to and from Taiwan were cancelled, according to the China Times newspaper.

It is crucial to note here that the Chinese government had warned Taiwan of a dramatic situation for allowing Pelosi to visit Taipei. On Wednesday, it sent at least 27 aircraft to Taiwan's air defence identification zone (ADIZ) hours after Pelosi's plane left Taipei. Addressing a press conference on August 3, China's Foreign Ministry spokesperson Hua Chunying dubbed Pelosi's visit unhealthy for democracy and added her visit only provoked and violated China's sovereignty and territorial integrity. However, Pelosi issued a statement describing her tour as a strong statement that America stands with Taiwan. She said that her visit is part of broader travels in the Indo-Pacific, focused on security, prosperity and governance - on which Taiwan is a global leader. During the final leg of her tour, Pelosi said Beijing will not isolate Taiwan by preventing US officials from travelling there and five other members of Congress arrived in Tokyo late on Thursday.
