TAIPEI, Aug 2 — Taiwan is preparing its air-raid shelters as rising tension with China and Russia’s invasion of Ukraine raise new fears about the possibility of a Chinese attack on the democratic island.
The capital of Taipei has more than 4,600 such shelters that can accommodate some 12 million people, more than four times its population. A senior official in the city office in charge of the shelters said events in Europe had brought a renewed sense of urgency. “All citizens should have crisis awareness ... We need the shelters in the event of an attack by the Chinese communists.”
