Tensions erupted in the South China Sea as the Philippines accused China of dangerously sideswiping and water-cannoning its coast guard vessel near Sandy Cay.
Footage confirms a Chinese ship's aggressive maneuvers, causing major damage to the Philippine boat.
While China’s foreign ministry claims ignorance, Manila calls the incident a “serious violation.” President Marcos Jr. issued a stern warning, vowing not to tolerate any threat to Philippine sovereignty.
As both nations trade blame, global attention turns to rising tensions in the disputed maritime zone, igniting fears of broader conflict.

Tensions flared at the United Nations Security Council as China’s Permanent Representative, Fu Cong, fired back at the United States over its accusations regarding the South China Sea. In a fiery exchange during the UNSC debate on multilateralism and peaceful dispute resolution, Fu accused Washington of hypocrisy, interference, and fueling instability in the region.
While the U.S. criticized China’s actions, Beijing firmly defended its territorial sovereignty and maritime claims, calling the American narrative misleading and dangerous. With both sides trading barbs in front of global representatives, the showdown raises fresh questions about who is truly threatening peace in the Indo-Pacific.

Philippine President Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. took a bold stance at the 2nd ASEAN-GCC Summit, calling for freedom of navigation in the South China Sea—a move widely seen as a direct challenge to China’s assertive claims in the region. Speaking before ASEAN and Gulf leaders, Marcos emphasized the importance of unimpeded commerce and adherence to international law, particularly the UNCLOS maritime convention. His remarks come amid rising tensions between Manila and Beijing over disputed waters.

Japan is set to export six Abukuma-class destroyer escorts to the Philippines in a landmark move aimed at countering China’s growing aggression in the South China Sea. The aging destroyers, in service for over 30 years, will significantly boost the Philippines’ naval capabilities, which currently lack such firepower. Defense ministers from both nations agreed to the deal in Singapore last month. Tokyo will frame the upgrades as a joint development project to bypass Japan’s pacifist export rules. The Philippines will inspect the ships this summer. This strategic partnership comes amid intensifying maritime tensions, as both Tokyo and Manila face growing challenges from Beijing’s territorial claims. The deal marks a new chapter in Asia-Pacific military realignment and is expected to draw a sharp response from China.

Tensions escalated in the South China Sea after China warned the European Union to stop “provoking trouble” and stay out of its territorial disputes with the Philippines. The sharp rebuke followed EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas' visit to Manila, where she voiced concern over China's assertive actions. Beijing insisted the EU has no legal or diplomatic role in the matter, cautioning Manila not to rely on outside powers for resolution. The statement underscores China's hardened stance as geopolitical fault lines deepen in the contested maritime zone.

The Philippine Coast Guard has strongly refuted China’s sweeping claims over the South China Sea. Spokesperson Commodore Jay Tarriela called China’s sovereignty narrative the "greatest lie we must confront." At the ASEAN Summit, Manila denounced Beijing’s aggression, warning it poses a threat to regional peace. ASEAN leaders echoed support for peaceful resolution, freedom of navigation, and a rules-based order. As tensions rise in disputed waters, the Philippines takes a bold stand, challenging China’s growing military footprint in one of the world’s most contested maritime zones.
