State Council Taiwan Affairs Office: By 2025, nearly 4,000 network attack incidents originating from Taiwan will be investigated and addressed.

The Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council held a routine press conference. A reporter asked: The Democratic Progressive Party authority recently released a so-called "report", claiming that by 2025, the mainland will conduct comprehensive cyber attacks on key infrastructure in Taiwan. What is your comment on this? Spokesperson Peng QingEn stated that the Democratic Progressive Party authority is fabricating, slandering, and smearing the mainland, not hesitating to escalate cross-strait confrontation to cover up its governance incompetence, divert public dissatisfaction, and seek political gains. In fact, the Democratic Progressive Party authority frequently instructs military intelligence agencies and cyber armies to launch cyber attacks on the mainland, spreading illegal and harmful information. According to statistics, in 2025, relevant departments investigated and dealt with nearly 4000 cases of cyber attacks from the direction of Taiwan, an increase of 25% compared to 2021. Their actions mainly targeted key industries in mainland China such as transportation, finance, technology, and energy, carrying out attacks and espionage. The so-called "report" by the Democratic Progressive Party authority is nothing but a guilty conscience and a distortion of facts.
