China vows to 'firmly defend' sovereignty as Taiwan launches drills

China vowed on Monday to "firmly defend" its sovereignty and insisted Taiwan was an "inalienable" part of its territory after the island said it had detected Chinese warships and coast guard vessels in its waters.

"China will firmly defend its national sovereignty and territorial integrity," foreign ministry spokeswoman Mao Ning said as the island's military launched combat readiness drills.
