EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Sam YEH from Agence France-Presse (AFP), Taiwanese troops engage in a training exercise, showcasing their military prowess amidst escalating tensions between Taiwan and China. The image depicts a group of servicemen shooting flares into the night sky while naval ships diligently search the coast of Nankan, an island within the Matsu island chain. The photograph encapsulates the intensity and dedication of these troops as they prepare for potential threats to their homeland. With Nankan located approximately 9,500 meters off the mainland at its closest point, it serves as a strategic vantage point for safeguarding Taiwan's sovereignty. Against the backdrop of Washington's largest arms sale package to Taipei since 1992, this image symbolizes Taiwan's determination to defend itself against any possible aggression. The soldiers' focused expressions and synchronized actions demonstrate their commitment to maintaining peace and security in this volatile region. Sam YEH skillfully captures both the power emanating from these exercises and the beauty that lies within them. This horizontal shot perfectly frames not only the servicemen but also highlights the naval ships patrolling nearby waters. It is a testament to both their rigorous training regimen and unwavering dedication towards protecting their nation. This remarkable print serves as a reminder of Taiwan's resilience in times of uncertainty, shedding light on its preparedness to face any challenges head-on with strength and unity.
