00:00Good evening Zon, Visayas and Mindanao.
00:05A new tension between the Philippines and China in the West Philippine Sea.
00:11A never-before-seen resupply vessel of the Philippines
00:15and a ship of the China Coast Guard took revenge in the Ayungin show.
00:20According to a report from the TV network run by the government of China,
00:24the China Coast Guard said,
00:26the Philippines is to blame for the incident.
00:29No one was harmed by China,
00:31but according to a reliable source of GMA Integrated News,
00:35a soldier was injured.
00:37Here is the story of Joseph Moro.
00:43Early this morning, a never-before-seen resupply vessel of the Philippines
00:48and a ship of the China Coast Guard took revenge in the Ayungin show.
00:51According to the Chinese state-run TV network CGTN,
00:55it is illegal for a Philippine ship to enter the sea
00:58in the Ayungin show called the China-Renai Reef.
01:02The CCG of the Control Measures is violating the law.
01:06According to the CCG,
01:08several times the Philippine ship left the waters of China
01:12and intended to approach a ship of China
01:15in an unprofessional manner resulting in a wreck.
01:19The Philippines violated the International Regulations
01:22for the Prevention of Collisions at Sea.
01:24The Philippines is to blame for the incident.
01:27No one was harmed or the ship was wrecked.
01:31But according to a reliable source of GMA Integrated News,
01:34a soldier was injured in the incident.
01:37A medical evacuation was carried out
01:39and the soldier's condition was investigated.
01:41According to the maritime security expert, Ray Powell,
01:44water cannon is the general term of the China Control Measures.
01:48In Powell's monitoring,
01:49a ship of the Philippine Coast Guard was seen in satellite images.
01:53It was at the bottom of the Ayungin show this morning
01:55and then it moved near Ayungin.
01:58It was down to the southeast,
02:01about 20 nautical miles southeast of Ayungin.
02:06And then just recently, in the last couple of hours,
02:09has moved north to where the maritime militia have been.
02:13There were three ships of the China Coast Guard
02:16and 12 maritime militia vessels
02:18based on an automatic identification system
02:20that was identified by the ships,
02:22but it could be turned off.
02:24According to Powell,
02:25the reason for the resupply mission was different
02:28because it did not enter the eastern part of Ayungin Shoal,
02:31just like what was done.
02:32The Philippine Coast Guard would come in from the east
02:36and escort the resupply vessels directly into Ayungin Shoal.
02:41Who exactly was escorting the resupply vessel
02:44is not clear from the ship tracks.
02:46The Philippine Coast Guard escorts the resupply vessels
02:49of the Philippine Navy and the Armed Forces of the Philippines.
02:51But according to the Philippine Coast Guard,
02:53they did not do this operation.
02:55The Armed Forces of the Philippines, the AFP,
02:58will not allow the alleged allegation of the China Coast Guard.
03:02We will not dignify the deceptive and misleading claims of the China Coast Guard.
03:07The main issue remains to be the illegal presence
03:10and actions of Chinese vessels
03:12within the Philippines' exclusive economic zone,
03:15which infringes on our sovereignty and sovereign rights.
03:18The continued aggressive actions of the CCG
03:21are escalating tensions in the region.
03:23For GMA Integrated News, Joseph Morong,
