Jay Tarriela, Philippine coastguard (PCG) spokesperson, said on social media that its vessels had “faced dangerous manoeuvres and blocking” from Chinese coastguard and Chinese maritime militia as they supported a resupply mission to military troops. This led to a collision that caused “minor structural damage to the PCG vessel”, he said in a statement.
Footage of the incident, shared by the Philippines, showed its crew rushing to place a buffer between the two Coast Guard vessels as they collided. Their Chinese counterparts stand filming the incident.
The Philippine side has “deliberately stirred up trouble” with China and “maliciously stirred up propaganda and continued to undermine peace and stability in the South China Sea,” it said.
Don’t they ever get tired of the chest beating BS?
China shows it’s fear of “lesser nations” daily. Trust me, Pacifica is watching very closely.
