China warns off Philippines after third ‘deliberate’ collision at Sabina Shoal
==========
On August 31, 2024, the Chinese Coast Guard issued its fourth warning in a week to the Philippines regarding vessel movements near Sabina Shoal, following a third collision between the BRP Teresa Magbanua and the Chinese CCG 5205. The collision occurred around noon, with China accusing the Philippine vessel of deliberate provocation. Philippine coastguard spokesman Jay Tarriela claimed the Chinese vessel rammed the Teresa Magbanua three times without provocation. The Philippines has stationed the Teresa Magbanua at Sabina Shoal since April to assert territorial claims, leading to increased tensions and confrontations. China demands the immediate withdrawal of the Philippine vessel, citing violations of sovereignty, while both sides blame each other for damage to coral reefs in the area.
