00:00The Russian attack submarine that passed through the exclusive economic zone of the Philippines on November 28 has just passed a bad time.
00:09That's what the pilots explained when they were radio challenged by the Philippine Navy according to the National Security Council.
00:16The submarine came from the exercises with the Malaysian Navy.
00:20The submarine also left that afternoon.
00:24According to the NSC, even though it's part of the EEZ of the Philippines, it's still a high seas area where the submarine can pass through.
00:32That's why it's allowed for any sea vehicle to sail there.
00:36According to the former vice commander of the Philippine Navy, retired Rear Admiral Romel Jude Ong,
00:42the reason why the submarine is there is a possible mechanical problem that Russia will not admit.
00:49It's also possible that it's a message or a warning for America.
