<p>HONG KONG (Reuters) -Two warships from Canada and Australia transited the Taiwan Strait while being monitored by the People's Liberation Army (PLA), China's state media reported on Saturday.</p>
<p>China's state-run Global Times newspaper said in a report the Canadian frigate Ville de Quebec and the Australian guided-missile destroyer Brisbane were the two vessels that passed through the waterway separating Communist China from the democratic island of Taiwan.</p>
<p>The Taiwan Defence Ministry said it could not immediately comment, and the Canadian and Australian militaries did not immediately respond to Reuters requests for comment.</p>
<p>"The People's Liberation Army (PLA) maintained full surveillance and monitoring throughout the transit, with the situation fully under control," the Global Times reported.</p>
<p>The U.S. Navy and occasionally ships from allied countries like Canada, Britain and France transit the strait, which they consider an international waterway, around once a month.</p>
<p>Taiwan also considers it an international waterway. China, which claims Taiwan as its own, says the strategic waterway is part of its territorial waters.</p>
