In a bold diplomatic and military move, India hosted Philippine President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. with full state honoursâwhile simultaneously dispatching warships for joint patrols in the South China Sea. INS Delhi, INS Shakti and INS Kiltan sailed alongside Philippine vessels inside Manilaâs exclusive economic zone, triggering a subtle yet unmistakable warning to China. The Indian Ministry of External Affairs reaffirmed support for freedom of navigation, calling the waters part of the âglobal commons.â
The joint drill coincided with Marcosâ five-day India visit, where the two nations signed a landmark Strategic Partnership agreement to boost defence, maritime cooperation, disaster relief and cyber security. While India didnât name China, Beijingâs rebuke of âthird-party interferenceâ left little ambiguity. The coordinated political hospitality and military manoeuvres signal Indiaâs rising Indo-Pacific assertiveness and a strategic alignment with one of Chinaâs fiercest regional rivalsâfirmly placing New Delhi in the emerging anti-China security web across the Indo-Pacific.

China has issued a stark warning after the Philippines and India completed their first-ever joint naval patrol in the disputed South China Sea, reporting âshadowingâ vessels and prompting Beijingâs PLA Southern Theatre Command to declare its forces on high alert. The maritime cooperative activityâas three Indian warships operated alongside Philippine frigates near Scarborough Shoalâcoincided with President Ferdinand Marcos Jr.âs state visit to New Delhi, signaling a deeper strategic bond between the two democracies.
China condemned the move, accusing Manila of ârallying external powersâ and asserting that such so-called joint patrols undermine regional peace. Analysts warn India's involvement could reshape the Quadâs maritime posture and provoke tougher Chinese responses. Beijing insists disputes must be settled directly and vows to safeguard its territorial sovereignty. As $3 trillion in trade flows through these waters annually, this flashpoint could mark a significant shift in Indo-Pacific security dynamics.
