Did not split the sea: China's coast guard fired at the Philippine Ships from Waterway (Video)

The parties exchanged mutual accusations. The Chinese stated that the Philippine ships were "illegally entering the waters", and the Philippines coast guard indicates the aggressive behavior of neighbors. The coastal security representative of the Philippines reported the attack of Chinese colleagues on their ships in the South Chinese Sea. At the same time, during the incident, the Chinese used waterlands, which, in turn, "led to significant damage.

" The video of the attack was posted on the YouTube channel of The Telegraph on December 9. The video recordings published by the Philippine Coast Guard shows how the ships of Chinese coastal guards are fired from the waterway on the boats of the Philippine Fisheries Bureau, the agency journalists write.

According to Manila, these ships performed a mission with oil and products of more than 30 Philippine ships in the shallows of Skarboro - an area in the South China Sea, which both countries claim. In fact, the Philippines and China exchanged accusations about the clash of their vessels in the controversial waters of the South Chinese Sea, since the tension around claims on a vital water path is aggravated.

The coastal security representative Jay Tariel reported that the Unaiza Mae 1 ship had serious damage to the engine as a result of such aggressive tactics, and the M/L Kalaayaan ship was simply fired with water from the waterway. In turn, China's Coast Guard stated that two Philippine vessels, ignoring repeated warnings, "illegally entered the waters adjacent to the Reef Renai on the islands of Nasha, without the approval of the Chinese government.

" It should be noted the second clash of this kind of October, when the Philippines and Chinese ships collided in the Thomas's second shallows, located in the allocated economic region of Philippines. Western observers noted that the Philippine servicemen are in this controversial maritime territory. And the reason for the claims is probably that about 11 billion of natural gas barrels, as well as significant oil and coral deposits, are in the South China Sea.
