On August 23, 1958, the Second Taiwan Strait Crisis erupted when China launched a heavy artillery bombardment of the Taiwan-controlled islands of Quemoy (Kinmen), escalating the conflict between the People’s Republic of China (PRC) and Taiwan. The crisis heightened fears of a larger war as the U.S., bound by a defense treaty with Taiwan, provided military support, including naval forces. Although the shelling lasted for weeks, a ceasefire was reached by late 1958. The crisis reinforced the U.S. commitment to defending Taiwan against Communist China.
