Sirens wail, cities shut down as Taiwan simulates Chinese air raid

Sirens wailed, roads emptied and people were ordered to stay indoors in Taiwan’s capital Taipei on July 17 during an annual air-raid exercise aimed at preparing for any Chinese missile attack.

Sirens sounded at 1:30 p.m. (0530 GMT) for the mandatory street evacuation drills, which effectively shut towns and cities across northern Taiwan for 30 minutes.
