A tense and dramatic moment unfolded in the contested waters of the South China Sea as a Chinese vessel collided with a Philippine boat, escalating tensions between the two nations.
The incident, captured on camera, reveals the high-stakes confrontations that continue to plague the region.
In the video, the Chinese ship can be seen ramming into the Philippine vessel near the disputed Sabina Shoal, an area increasingly marked by such maritime clashes.
This latest confrontation is part of a broader struggle over territorial claims in the South China Sea, where Beijing's aggressive tactics have drawn international concern.
The footage has sparked outrage in Manila and heightened the already fraught relations between China and the Philippines.
The event underscores the volatile nature of the South China Sea dispute and the ever-present risk of these encounters spiralling into a larger conflict.
Tensions flare in the South China Sea as British warship HMS Spey boldly challenges China's sweeping territorial claims. In a direct confrontation backed by NATO principles, the Royal Navy asserts international law and freedom of navigation. As Beijing condemns the operation as âdestabilizing,â London doubles down on its Indo-Pacific presence. Will this bold move escalate the ongoing power struggle in Asiaâs most volatile waters?

A top Philippine general has issued a stark warning over China's aggressive actions in the South China Sea, calling Beijing's claims "illegal and coercive." Brigadier General Logico criticized Chinaâs expanding control near Philippine waters as U.S., Philippine, and Australian forces launch massive joint military drills. With 14,000 troops and international observers involved, the Balikatan exercises underscore a growing alliance. For the first time, the U.S. deployed deadly NMESIS missile systems near Taiwan, intensifying regional tension. As military presence escalates, calls for global attention to China's maritime behavior grow louder.

The BRP Miguel Malvar, an 80-year-old World War II ship, sank unexpectedly before it could be used as a live-fire target in the U.S.-Philippine Balikatan drills. Originally set to be sunk off Zambales, rough seas and the vessel's age caused it to go under prematurely. The Malvar held historical value as a former U.S. Navy ship that once hunted Japanese submarines. Although the target drill was canceled, joint military exercises continued near the disputed Scarborough Shoal, highlighting growing U.S.-Philippine cooperation in deterring China's presence in the South China Sea.

In a stunning political twist, ex-President Rodrigo Duterte has been elected mayor of Davao City with over 662,000 votesâdespite being jailed in The Hague over his brutal war on drugs. The crowd erupted as the ICC detainee was proclaimed victor, defeating Karlo Nograles in a landslide. Duterteâs return cements his familyâs grip on power, with sons, grandsons, and allies sweeping key positions. But as he faces charges of crimes against humanity, the question remains: Can a man rule from a jail cellâand what does this mean for the Marcos-Duterte power feud?

Xi Jinping warns that âbullyingâ and âhegemonismâ in global trade will backfire, criticizing U.S. trade policies. Speaking at a Latin American summit in Beijing, Xi emphasized that no one wins in a tariff war, advocating for unity and cooperation. His comments follow a temporary truce in the U.S.-China trade conflict, where both nations agreed to significantly reduce tariffs. With China scaling back levies on U.S. imports and the U.S. agreeing to lower tariffs on Chinese goods, Xi framed China as a defender of free trade and global fairness.

China has issued a stern warning to the United States, urging Washington to âstop smearing and shifting the blameâ over the ongoing fentanyl crisis. Despite a recently announced 90-day tariff reduction deal, tensions remain high as Beijing calls U.S. fentanyl-related policies unreasonable and harmful to bilateral cooperation. China reiterated that it does not bear responsibility for Americaâs opioid epidemic and called for respectful, equal, and constructive dialogue moving forward. While U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer insists efforts will continue, Beijing's frustration could derail further negotiations.

As U.S. trade tensions mount, China is strengthening its grip on Latin America. At the China-CELAC Forum in Beijing, leaders from across the region gathered, with many deepening their commitment to Chinaâs Belt and Road Initiative. With two-thirds of Latin American countries already on board, China has become the top trading partner for major economies like Brazil and Peru. Meanwhile, Trump's tariff threats and warnings over the Panama Canal have driven mistrust. China now positions itself as the reliable partner Latin America can count on.

Duterte reportedly sought asylum in China amid fears of an International Criminal Court (ICC) arrest. China has denied media reports that former Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte sought asylum in the country before his arrest on March 11, 2025. Beijing's Foreign Ministry spokesperson, Guo Jiakun, stated that neither Duterte nor his family submitted an asylum request. Duterte was detained in Manila following an ICC warrant for crimes against humanity related to his controversial war on drugs, which led to thousands of extrajudicial killings.
