The Philippine Coast Guard (PCG) showed video footage of a flare fired by Chinese forces from Subi Reef toward an unarmed PCG aircraft during a routine Maritime Domain Awareness (MDA) flight over the Kalayaan Island Group on Monday, Sept. 7.
The PCG said the aircraft was conducting the flight to monitor Chinese vessels operating within Philippine waters when it was radio-challenged by Chinese forces occupying Subi Reef. Chinese forces occupying Mischief Reef also radio-challenged the aircraft during the same flight.
