Chinese and Philippine Ships Collide Near Second Thomas Shoal Under New Coastguard Law
Jun 17, 2024, 07:10 AM
Tensions have escalated in the South China Sea following a collision between Chinese and Philippine vessels near the Second Thomas Shoal at 05:59 local time. The incident, which occurred under Beijing’s new coastguard law, has led to both nations blaming each other. China’s coast guard accused the Philippine supply ship of illegally entering Chinese waters near Ren'ai Jiao in the Nansha Islands and deliberately approaching a Chinese vessel, resulting in the collision. Reports indicate that Chinese vessels used water cannons during the incident. In contrast, the Philippines has rejected these claims, labeling them as misleading and deceptive. The Philippine Defense Ministry condemned China's actions as dangerous and reckless, asserting that they pose a threat to peace and stability in the region.
