Philippines SHOCKS China with MAJOR Military Move in South China Sea | Tensions EXPLODE!

The Philippines is making a bold military move in the South China Sea, announcing new naval bases in Subic Bay, Mindanao, and Sibutu under its ‘Horizon 3’ defense program. Amid rising tensions with China, the expansion aims to strengthen coastal security from Scarborough Shoal to the Spratlys. President Marcos emphasized the need for enhanced naval capabilities. The move also supports trilateral patrols with Indonesia and Malaysia, while rejecting Beijing’s territorial claims and interference in Philippine waters. #Philippines #SouthChinaSea #MaritimeSecurity #SubicBay #Mindanao #Sibutu #Horizon3 #NavalExpansion #SpratlyIslands #ScarboroughShoal #ChinaTensions #Geopolitics #IndoPacific #MilitaryStrategy #PresidentMarcos #USPhilippines #TrilateralPatrols #NavalBase #PhilippineNavy #SoutheastAsia #SeaDispute #SuluSea #ChineseDrones #TerritorialDefense #AsiaPacific #ForeignPolicy #NationalSecurity #ChinaSeaTensions #SibutuPassage #StrategicDefense #BeijingClaimsRejected Also Read China's Sonar Shocker: The 20km Sub-Spotter That Could Sink Naval Strategies :: https://www.oneindia.com/feature/chinas-sonar-shocker-the-20km-sub-spotter-that-could-sink-naval-strategies-3940843.html?ref=DMDesc China’s PLA Warns: 'We’ll Crush Foreign Encroachment' In South China Sea :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/china-s-pla-warns-we-ll-crush-foreign-encroachment-in-south-china-sea-011-3932325.html?ref=DMDesc WATCH Video | Standoff At South China Sea: Chinese Coast Guard Attacks Philippine Navy Boats :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/watch-video-standoff-at-south-china-sea-chinese-coast-guard-attacks-philippine-navy-boats-3857477.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.194~HT.336~

Indonesia Quarry Collapse: Limestone Quarry Collapse Kills At Least 13, Dozens Trapped | West Java

A limestone quarry in Indonesia’s West Java province collapsed on Friday, killing at least 13 people and injuring a dozen others. Authorities fear more may still be buried under the rubble. The rescue mission, involving excavators and volunteers, was halted due to unstable soil and will resume Saturday. Governor Dedi Mulyadi ordered the permanent closure of this and four similar unsafe mining sites. This is the quarry’s second collapse this year, highlighting growing concerns over mining safety in the Southeast Asian archipelago. #Indonesia #QuarryCollapse #WestJava #MiningDisaster #LimestoneMine #RescueEfforts #MiningAccident #Cirebon #FatalCollapse #BreakingNews #DisasterResponse #IllegalMining #JavaMineCollapse #TrappedMiners #MiningSafety #SouthEastAsia #MineRescue #MiningTragedy #EnvironmentalHazard #UnlicensedMines ~ED.420~HT.336~GR.124~
