The Taihoku Airstrike (Chinese: 松山空襲) was an air raid by the military of the Republic of China against the metropolitan perimeter of Taihoku (modern-day Taipei), the capital of Japanese Taiwan, on 8 February 1938.
The aircraft were deployed from airfields in Zhejiang and Fujian, and flew uncontested over the Taiwan Strait.
Once over metropolitan Taihoku, the aircraft dropped leaflets, or according to some sources made a minor bombing strike, and successfully returned to China, under Japanese antiaircraft fire.
Contemporary newspaper accounts stated that eight people were killed and 25 were wounded.
One foreign eyewitness, American diplomat George H. Kerr, described the air raid to the foreign press, and mentioned that as a result, sand barricades were built around important government and commerce buildings, anti-aircraft guns were deployed, and internal security strengthened against possible fifth column activity by the local ethnic Chinese population.
