    • Philippines Accuses China of Aggressive Actions, Water Cannon Attack Near Scarborough Shoal

      On December 4, Chinese coast guard vessels, backed by navy ships, aggressively confronted Philippine patrol vessels near the disputed Scarborough Shoal in the South China Sea. The Philippine Coast Guard reported that the Chinese ships fired water cannons at the vessels, blocking and sideswiping them. The attack occurred while the Philippine vessels were on a routine patrol to protect local fishermen. Despite the aggressive actions, the Philippine authorities reaffirmed their commitment to safeguarding their maritime jurisdiction. The incident highlights ongoing tensions in the region, where China’s claims overlap with those of several Southeast Asian nations, including the Philippines.
