A fresh maritime flashpoint erupted in the South China Sea as China accused the Philippines of an "illegal incursion" near the disputed Zhubi Jiao and Tiexian Jiao reefs.
The China Coast Guard reported that two Philippine ships entered the contested waters without permission, with some personnel allegedly landing on a Chinese-claimed reef.
Tensions escalated when one Philippine vessel reportedly ignored multiple warnings and collided with a Chinese ship.
Beijing slammed the actions as a “severe violation” of its sovereignty, vowing to continue enforcement operations.

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.

Dramatic videos are surfacing online, showing submerged roads, families wading through rising waters, and rescue operations underway. At least 6 are dead, and several remain missing. Two more storms are forming off the coast, threatening to worsen an already dire situation.

Trump’s decision to withdraw the U.S. from UNESCO has sparked backlash, with China accusing Washington of abandoning its global responsibilities. Beijing has pledged continued support for UNESCO and multilateralism, subtly signaling its intent to expand influence within UN agencies. Critics warn this move may allow China to dominate international institutions as the U.S. retreats from global leadership. The Trump administration cited “woke” agendas and bias as reasons, reigniting fears of a broader U.S. disengagement from key international bodies.
