Anti-Corruption Drive Affects PLA Leadership

Washington-based think tank report states Chinese leader Xi Jinping has purged over 100 military officers since 2022, including 36 generals, as part of anti-corruption drive.
Purge may limit People's Liberation Army's ability to conduct complex military operations, like an invasion of Taiwan.
While blockades of Taiwan might still be feasible, PLA's leadership loss questions its capability for a risky invasion.
