The Chinese military will carry out live-fire exercises in the Yellow Sea from Saturday to Aug 15, according to the Lianyungang Maritime Safety Administration in Jiangsu province.

The administration said in a navigational warning published on Friday afternoon on its website that the exercises will take place from 8 am to 6 pm each day.

It released geographical coordinates of the drill zone, asking ships not participating in the event not to enter.

The People's Liberation Army has been conducting a number of live-fire exercises this month in the wake of United States House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's visit to Taiwan.
