China and Taiwan: The basics​

• China and Taiwan have had separate governments since the end of the Chinese civil war in 1949. Beijing has long tried to limit Taiwan's international activities and both have vied for influence in the Pacific region
• Tensions have increased in recent years and Beijing has not ruled out the use of force to take the island back
• Although Taiwan is officially recognised by only a handful of nations, its democratically elected government has strong commercial and informal links with many countries
• Like most nations, the US has no official diplomatic ties with Taiwan, but a US law does require it to provide the island with the means to defend itself

I imagine that China is doing this after the G7 summit. They're in fact reinforcing the truthfulness of the statement by these actions.

But it is as expected, these actions will similarly give the US enough reason to support Taiwain even further.

Both China and US are pulling no punches, do it doesn't matter.
