An ADIZ is international airspace unless it is within 12 nm of the coast. While the Chinese PLAAF was purportedly engaged in provocation, the 17 warships of the US and some allies north of Taiwan at the same time were only engaged in "freedom of navigation."
(Source- USNI Oct. 4) US aircraft carriers Vinson and Reagan with HMS Queen Elizabeth, and the Japanese small carrier Ise. Taiwan News reported these ships operating north of Taiwan, October 3 and 4, with 13 other allied warships.
