Escalating Tensions in the South China Sea: Philippines Deploys Ships Amidst Dispute

Escalating Tensions in the South China Sea: Philippines Deploys Ships Amidst Dispute

Amidst escalating tensions in the South China Sea, the Philippines has taken a decisive step, deploying ships to a disputed area where it alleges China is constructing an artificial island.

President Ferdinand Marcos Jr's office issued a statement confirming the deployment, emphasising the need to monitor what it termed as "supposed illegal activities" by China.

Philippine Coast Guard spokesperson Commodore Jay Tarriela corroborated these claims, citing evidence of small-scale reclamation at the Sabina Shoal, known as Escoda by Manila.

Despite these assertions, the Chinese embassy in Manila has yet to respond, potentially exacerbating bilateral rifts.

The Philippine national security adviser has even called for the expulsion of Chinese diplomats over an alleged leak regarding a phone conversation about the maritime dispute.

Duterte’s SHOCKING Escape Plan? Philippines Ex-President Sought Asylum in China Before ICC Arrest

Duterte reportedly sought asylum in China amid fears of an International Criminal Court (ICC) arrest. China has denied media reports that former Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte sought asylum in the country before his arrest on March 11, 2025. Beijing's Foreign Ministry spokesperson, Guo Jiakun, stated that neither Duterte nor his family submitted an asylum request. Duterte was detained in Manila following an ICC warrant for crimes against humanity related to his controversial war on drugs, which led to thousands of extrajudicial killings. #DuterteICCArrest #RodrigoDuterte #DuterteAsylum #DuterteChinaEscape #DuterteWarOnDrugs #ICCAgainstDuterte #DuterteArrestWarrant #DuterteLatestNews #PhilippinesPolitics #DuterteEscapePlan #SaraDuterte #DuterteHearing #DuterteUnderFire #DuterteCrackdown #DuterteFlees Also Read What Is The International Criminal Court, Which Had Former Philippine President Duterte Arrested :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/what-is-the-international-criminal-court-which-had-former-philippine-president-duterte-arrested-4094009.html?ref=DMDesc Philippines govt’s anti-drug campaign kills 444 in one month! :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/philippines-govts-anti-drug-campaign-kills-444-in-one-month-2784450.html?ref=DMDesc "I stabbed a person to death as a teenager": Philippines President :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/i-stabbed-person-death-as-teenager-philippines-president-2580176.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~GR.121~
