A Taiwanese fishing boat, 'Da Jin Man 88,' was seized by seven Mainland coast guard ships near Kinmen's Beiding Island while operating in the area on the evening of July 2nd. Despite efforts by two patrol boats from Taiwan's Coast Guard Administration to intervene, the Mainland ships took control of the fishing boat and attempted to bring it back to mainland China for investigation. The incident, which occurred outside of restricted waters claimed by Mainland China, has raised tensions amid speculation about the motives behind the Mainland Coast Guard's actions and concerns about the safety of the crew onboard.
