Quick Glance: Philippines: China Coast Guard Injures Crew, Damages Vessels
  • The Philippines reported on Tuesday that China Coast Guard vessels collided with Philippine ships and used water cannon on a boat, resulting in four crew members being injured during a resupply mission in the South China Sea.

  • Manila summoned a Chinese representative over the incidents, which occurred around Second Thomas Shoal in the Spratly Islands where both countries have conflicting maritime claims.

  • China Coast Guard stated that it took 'control measures' against Philippine ships for 'illegally' intruding in waters around the shoal.

  • Relations between Manila and Beijing have strained under Marcos, who has aimed to improve ties with traditional ally Washington, while also pushing back against Chinese actions in the South China Sea.

Quick Glance: Taiwan Raises Alarm Over 'Enormous' Chinese Bases Near Its S. China Sea Holding
  • Taiwan's foreign minister mentioned that China has established 'enormous' military bases on three islands surrounding Taiwan's main holding in the South China Sea, but Taipei is not seeking to further escalate tensions in the strategic waterway.

  • Some lawmakers from both the ruling and main opposition parties have urged President Tsai Ing-wen to visit Itu Aba to assert Taiwan's sovereignty and witness a newly renovated harbor capable of accommodating larger ships.

  • China has conducted extensive land reclamation on its South China Sea islands, constructing major air force and other military facilities, causing significant concern in Washington and the region.

  • Taiwan also controls the Pratas Islands in the northern part of the South China Sea, and both China's air force and navy frequently operate nearby to assert Beijing's territorial claims over Taiwan, which the Taipei government rejects.
