BREAKING – Chinese city of Shenzhen urges people to prepare for an emergency. Just a couple of days ago CCP leader Xi Jinping asked troops to prepare for war.

The southern Chinese city of Shenzhen ordered all residents to prepare emergency supplies in 72 categories, such as enough food and water for 72 hours and a fire blanket, on Oct. 13. This comes as As Xi Calls on Troops to Prepare for War.

Earlier this week, the General Secretary of the Communist Party of China Xi Jinping inspected Chaozhou, a city on the front line of Taiwan, and called out to the Marines stationed there. After he left, Shenzhen issued the “Shenzhen Family Emergency Material Reserve List” to guide the public in dealing with disasters. These two incidents occurred almost at the same time, causing the local people to think whether it was related to the tension in the Taiwan Strait.

According to the “Shenzhen Family Emergency Material Reserve List” issued by the Shenzhen Municipal Emergency Management Bureau, it is divided into the “Basic Edition” which lists the required items from emergency items, emergency tools, and emergency medicines to common disasters and applicable disasters. For example, multifunctional emergency flashlights, lifeguard whistle, fire extinguishers, breathing masks, etc. The “expanded version” includes food, daily necessities, emergency supplies, and emergency tools. Chinese netizens were surprised by this. The Weibo netizen “Elephant” left a message saying that it would be difficult to publish this news at this time without Lenovo. Some people also wrote, is there going to be an accident in Fujian, and will there be war in Xiamen?

According to the report, Xi Jinping, Chairman of the Central Military Commission of the Communist Party of China, inspected the Marine Corps in the Chaoshan area this week. He said that the Marine Corps is an elite amphibious combat force that shoulders important responsibilities in safeguarding national sovereignty, security and territorial integrity, safeguarding national maritime rights and interests, and safeguarding national overseas interests. Xi Jinping also said, “Grasp the characteristics and laws of the Marine Corps construction management and combat application, accelerate the transformation and construction, accelerate the improvement of combat capabilities, and strive to forge a strong force of combined versatility, rapid response, and full-field use.”

Free Asia said that China has recently stepped up its military activities around the island of Taiwan. In the first nine months of this year, China dispatched 1,710 fighters to Taiwan’s air defense identification zone to carry out air intrusion and 1,029 maritime intrusions. Taiwan’s Ministry of National Defense stated that since the beginning of January this year, the Taiwan Air Force has been forced to take off 4132 emergency sorties, an increase of 129% year-on-year. In the past month, nearly 40 Chinese fighter planes have crossed the center line of the Taiwan Strait and entered the Southwest Taiwan Air Defense Identification Zone.
