00:00In this clearer and more detailed drone video from the PCGB FAR,
00:05we can see how China Coast Guard 3302 intended to target the Tambucho of the BRP Datu Pagbuhayan this Wednesday.
00:12We can see the force of the splash of water whenever it hits it.
00:16Due to the high pressure, the protective cover of the Tambucho was removed.
00:20According to the crew of the ship, if the Tambucho was hit by water,
00:24it is possible that the machine will kill them.
00:26This is a very dangerous thing since they are in the middle of the sea.
00:29It's good that the CCG vessel changed its target.
00:33The three large tanks of the crew hit the back of the ship.
00:37It was hit again and again as if it wanted to break.
00:40These are the three industrial-grade plastic tanks that were targeted by the China Coast Guard water cannon several times.
00:46This is where the crude oil supplied by the BRP FAR hit the fishermen.
00:51It was not destroyed but its thick metal support was deformed
00:55and the plastic itself was damaged due to the high pressure from the water cannon.
01:00When it was not destroyed and the BRP Datu Pagbuhayan continued to run towards the direction of Scarborough,
01:06this is where the captain of the giant ship of China decided
01:09to speed up its course to hit the smaller ship of the BRP FAR.
01:13The BRP Datu Pagbuhayan turned around up to 40 degrees due to the hit of the CCG vessel.
01:21On its way to its home port in Orion, Bataan,
01:24the crew saw the other wreckage of the BRP Datu Pagbuhayan.
01:28This is the protective cover of the hydraulic line of their onboard crane
01:32that was damaged after the water cannon hit it.
01:35The metal support of the RIB or Rigid Hull Inflatable Boat of Pagbuhayan
01:39was also damaged due to the hit of the water cannon.
01:41Fortunately, the ship itself was not damaged.
01:45The sister ship of Pagbuhaya, the BRP Datu Matanam Taradapit,
01:48that patrolled the San Dike near Pagasa Island,
01:51was also hit by a Chinese military ship.
01:55Fortunately, the ship was not hit by the BRP FAR.
01:58According to the agency, this is just one of the challenges that their people are facing.
02:06We can see how our personnel of the Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources
02:14are being harassed by our ships patrolling the West Philippine Sea.
02:20They are repeatedly experiencing harassment,
02:23but we can say that they are not giving up.
