Philippine Coast Guard says ship damaged in collision with Chinese vessel


At sea (AFP) – Images published by the Philippine Coast Guard purportedly show a collision between one of its ships and a China Coast Guard vessel during a resupply mission in the South China Sea. The Chinese coast guard and other vessels undertook “dangerous manoeuvres and blocking”, leading to a collision that resulted in “minor structural damage to the PCG (Philippine Coast Guard) vessel,” PCG Commodore Jay Tarriela said in a post on social media platform X.
