According to Philippine Coast Guard spokesman Commodore Jay Tarriela:

PCG Implements Kadiwa Operation in Bajo de Masinloc and Offers Assistance to CCG Following Maritime Incident

In response to the presence of around 35 Filipino fishing vessels in Bajo de Masinloc, the Philippine Coast Guard (PCG) deployed the BRP Teresa Magbanua and BRP Suluan, along with MV Pamamalakaya, early this morning to carry out the “Kadiwa Para sa Bagong Bayaning Mangingisda (KBBM)” initiative.

During the operation, Philippine vessels and fishermen encountered hazardous maneuvers and blocking actions from other vessels in the vicinity. In particular, the MRRV 4406 was targeted with a water cannon, but the seamanship skills by PCG crew members allowed the vessel to successfully evade from getting hit.

In a related incident, a collision took place between China Coast Guard (CCG) vessel 3104 and People's Liberation Army Navy (PLA Navy) ship 164, approximately 10.5 nautical miles east of Bajo de Masinloc. The CCG 3104, which was chasing the BRP Suluan at high speed, performed a risky maneuver from the PCG vessel's starboard quarter, leading to the impact with the PLA Navy warship. This resulted in substantial damage to the CCG vessel's forecastle, rendering it unseaworthy.

Following the collision, the PCG immediately offered support, including assistance with man-overboard recovery and medical aid for any injured CCG crew members. Meanwhile, the MRRV 9701 safely escorted the Filipino fishermen to a secure location, where they are now being provided with essential fuel and supplies.

The Philippine Coast Guard reaffirms its dedication to safeguarding all maritime operations in the area and wishes for the swift recovery and proper treatment of any affected CCG personnel.

  1. Wonder how many social credits that captain just lost. Well done West Taiwan.

  2. Why would the west do this 😔 to glorious chinese navy

  4. I love picturing the Philipine guardsmen throwing life rings at the Chinese stuck in the water.

  5. Am I the only one who finds this whole thing completely bizarre? A superpower insists on insane maximalist territorial claims but won’t actually fight for it, so they resort to ramming coast guard ships into things?

  7. Dudes on the Philippine ship were probably so hyphy after that lol

  9. Everyone always says that China intentionally rams boats but has anyone considered that their boat captains are Asian?

  10. So the Chinese rammed the Chinese while both were trying to chase the Phillipenes?

  11. So basically the Chinese did ram the ship of theirs compatriots and Philippinese offered them help?

  14. This looks like PLA ship intentionally cut off their own CCG ship. Were they trying to do it in front of Philippines boat, but were to slow?
