Defining the News

The Armed Forces of the Philippines on Sunday said that one of its transport vessels, BRP Benguet, issued “consecutive radio challenges” to a Chinese naval vessel for shadowing while near the Pag-asa Island on Friday.

BRP Benguet was en route to Rizal Reef Station for its regular rotation and resupply mission when the tailing occurred between 1:40 p.m. and 5:04 p.m. Friday, Ileto said.

He added the potential for collision and accident at sea further highlights the urgency for China to uphold maritime safety standards.
