Cooking Culinary Adventure: inspired by Halifax's Seaport Market | SaltWire #cooking #cookingshortsMANILA -The Philippines on Monday called China an"aggressor", accusing it of"increasing tensions" in the South China Sea and causing the collision that damaged one of Manila's boats during a resupply mission.
China's coast guard said on Sunday there had been a"slight collision" between one of its ships and the Philippine boat while the coast guard was"lawfully" blocking the boat from transporting"illegal construction materials". The shoal, known in Manila as Ayungin and Renai Reef in China, is within the Philippines' 200-nautical-mile exclusive economic zone.
Maritime confrontations between Manila and Beijing have become a regular feature in the South China Sea, as both countries assert their territorial claims in the highly strategic waters.
