Philippine Coast Guard Monitors Chinese Research Vessel Off Batanes This morning, the Philippine Coast Guard Commandant, Admiral Ronnie Gil Gavan, deployed PCG Islander 4177 off the coast of Batanes to monitor and challenge the Chinese research vessel "ZHONG SHAN DA XUE." At approximately 8 AM, the PCG Islander detected the Chinese research vessel at coordinates Lat 21°18.457 N, Long 123°12.281, roughly 78.21 nautical miles northeast of Itbayat, Batanes. The crew of the PCG Islander attempted to establish radio communication with the vessel multiple times, but there was no response. PCG aviators underscored on their radio challenge that the said Chinese vessel lacks the authority to conduct marine scientific research within the Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) of the Philippines, emphasizing that its activities constitute a clear violation of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) and the Philippine Maritime Zones Act.

Philippine Coast Guard Takes Action Against Chinese Research Vessel Off the Coast of Ilocos Norte The Philippine Coast Guard (PCG) has deployed BRP Teresa Magbanua and a PCG aircraft to monitor, challenge, and escort the Chinese Research Vessel (CRV) Tan Suo 3 out of the Philippine Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ). The vessel was detected entering the EEZ on May 1, 2025, approximately 92 nautical miles off the coast of Burgos, Ilocos Norte. This morning, upon the arrival of the PCG vessel at the location of the Chinese Research Vessel, the PCG aircraft launched from Laoag to support the maritime law enforcement operation, conducting maritime domain awareness (MDA) flight in the area. Both assets engaged in radio challenges, confirming that their operations within the Philippines’ EEZ align with the Philippine Maritime Zones Act, the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, and the 2016 Arbitral Award. The crew of the Chinese Research Vessel was promptly informed that they were operating within the Philippines' EEZ. Their irregular movements were deemed inconsistent with the freedom of navigation and indicative of marine scientific research activities, which violate the sovereign rights of the Philippines. They were instructed to cease their unlawful activities, clarify their intentions, and ensure continuous transit within the EEZ in compliance with both international and Philippine laws. During the operation, the PCG spotted a manned deep-sea submersible vessel fast approaching the Chinese Research Vessel, which was later retrieved by its crew. This submersible, known as the SHENHAI YONGSHI or Deep-Sea Warrior, is engineered for deep-sea exploration and scientific research, with the capability to dive to depths of 4,500 meters. In addition, a Rigid Hull Inflatable Boat (RHIB) was deployed to recover a yellow-colored unidentified piece of equipment, which may also be associated with marine scientific research activities. These actions of the CRV serves as clear evidence that the People's Republic of China are conducting illegal marine scientific research activities within the Philippines' Exclusive Economic Zone, lacking the legal authority to undertake such activities in this area. The vigilant presence of the PCG vessel has effectively prevented the Chinese Research Vessel from continuing its unlawful activities within the Philippines' EEZ. The PCG Commandant, Admiral Ronnie Gil Gavan, reaffirmed the PCG's commitment to enforcing maritime laws and ensuring the protection of Philippine sovereignty and sovereign rights in the West Philippine Sea.

PCG Monitors and Challenges Chinese Coast Guard Vessels in Batanes Waters The Philippine Coast Guard (PCG) has been actively monitoring three Chinese Coast Guard (CCG) vessels (3304, 3301, and 4304) in the waters off Batanes since yesterday, following their detection by Canada’s Dark Vessel Detection system. In light of their irregular movements, the PCG deployed an aircraft to conduct Maritime Domain Awareness (MDA) patrols in the northern region to challenge and document the CCG vessels’ movements. The PCG Islander departed from Manila at 6:00 AM today, en route to the northernmost province of the Philippines. Upon locating the CCG-4304, the crew issued radio challenges, emphasizing that the vessel lacks legal authority to operate within the Philippines' Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ), approximately 75 nautical miles west off the coast of Sabtang, Batanes. Unfortunately, the CCG vessel did not respond. Consequently, adverse weather conditions and the distance to the other two CCG vessels (3304 and 3301) prevented the aircraft from reaching their locations. The leadership of the PCG remains resolute and is prepared to deploy additional resources should the CCG vessels continue their presence or approach closer the Batanes coastline. The PCG is committed to protecting Philippine waters and will take necessary measures against any violations of the nation's maritime jurisdiction.

PCG Challenges China Coast Guard Vessel Loitering Off the Coast of Luzon The Philippine Coast Guard (PCG) deployed BRP MALABRIGO (MRRV-4402) since 20 June 2026 to challenge and drive away the China Coast Guard (CCG) vessel 5304 operating within the Philippines’ Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ). As of today, BRP MALABRIGO has radio-challenged CCG-5304 numerous times but CCG vessel did not respond to any of these challenges. During a Maritime Domain Awareness (MDA) flight this morning, the PCG Britten-Norman Islander aircraft (PCG-251) flew over the location of CCG-5304, observed approximately 45.5 nautical miles west of Iba, Zambales. CCG-5304 has been loitering in the maritime area between 27.0 and 45.0 nautical miles west of Luzon since 16 June 2026. Its northernmost track approached as close as 27.29 nautical miles off Burgos, Ilocos Sur, while its southernmost track reached approximately 30.0 nautical miles off Capones Island. As of this evening, the vessel was observed 43.0 nautical miles west of Cabangan, Zambales. It is worth noting that the movement pattern indicates that CCG-5304 is likely patrolling along the limits of China’s unlawfully claimed sea areas in the West Philippine Sea, as demarcated by its illegal nine- or ten-dash line — claims that were invalidated by the 2016 Arbitral Award. The PCG remains steadfast in upholding the Philippines’ sovereign rights and jurisdiction within its maritime zones. We will continue to maintain our presence and conduct lawful patrols to ensure the safety of our maritime domain and protect the rights of our Filipino fisherfolk. The PCG, under the leadership of Admiral Ronnie Gil Gavan, remains committed to transparency in exposing the illegal and aggressive activities of China in the West Philippine Sea.

PCG Aircraft Conducts MDA Flight and Responds to Radio Challenges from PLA Navy Warship Near Bajo de Masinloc The Philippine Coast Guard recently conducted a routine Maritime Domain Awareness (MDA) flight over the vicinity of Bajo de Masinloc, located within the Philippines’ exclusive economic zone in the West Philippine Sea. During the patrol, the PCG aircraft detected the unauthorized presence of several Chinese maritime forces. These included two China Coast Guard vessels—one bearing an unidentified bow number and positioned approximately 84.6 nautical miles west of Capones Island, while the other was located 7.8 nautical miles southeast of Bajo de Masinloc—as well as two People’s Liberation Army Navy (PLAN) warships with hull numbers 553 and 909 near the Southeast of BDM. In addition, five vessels believed to be Chinese maritime militia were observed at distances ranging from 6.16 to 11.82 nautical miles from Bajo de Masinloc. The PLAN warship with hull number 553 issued multiple radio challenges to the PCG Islander aircraft. The PCG aircrew responded professionally, asserting that the MDA flight was fully compliant with the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS), the 2016 Arbitral Award, and the Philippine Maritime Zones Act. These legal instruments affirm the Philippines’ sovereignty, sovereign rights, and maritime jurisdiction over the West Philippine Sea. The crew further emphasized the Philippines’ lawful authority to conduct MDA operations within its maritime zones and reminded the PLAN warship that China, as a signatory to UNCLOS, had no legal basis to interfere with legitimate Philippine activities. The PCG remains firmly committed to upholding the Philippines’ sovereignty and sovereign rights in the West Philippine Sea through transparent and peaceful operations, undeterred by any unlawful interference. This aerial patrol underscores the PCG’s unwavering resolve to protect Filipino fishermen, preserve our marine resources, and highlight the illegal presence of Chinese maritime forces to prevent its normalization—fully aligned with President Ferdinand Marcos Jr.’s pledge to yield not a single inch of our territory to any foreign power.

Philippine Coast Guard Continues Vigilant Patrol Amidst China Coast Guard’s Dangerous Maneuver The Philippine Coast Guard (PCG) vessel, BRP Cabra, remains steadfast in its mission to challenge the illegal patrol conducted by the China Coast Guard vessel 3302. Despite continuous radio communications from the PCG asserting the illegitimacy of these actions, the China Coast Guard continues to claim that it is engaged in lawful maritime operations. Significantly, the presence of BRP Cabra has effectively pushed the China Coast Guard vessel further away, now located approximately 92-96 nautical miles off the coast of Capones Island. This demonstrates the PCG's commitment to safeguarding Philippine maritime interests and preventing the normalization of unlawful activities by the People’s Republic of China in the West Philippine Sea. Furthermore, it is important to note that the China Coast Guard vessel 3302 has engaged in reckless and dangerous maneuvers, displaying a blatant disregard for safety. An alarming incident this afternoon involved an attempted head-on collision with the smaller PCG vessel, raising concerns about the China Coast Guard's adherence to the Convention on the International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea, 1972 (COLREGs), of which they are a signatory. It is only through the seamanship skills and professionalism of the crew of BRP Cabra that such collision was narrowly averted. Despite these provocative actions, the PCG maintains a composed and professional approach, prioritizing safety and the prevention of any untoward incidents. PCG Commandant, Admiral Ronnie Gil Gavan, continues to emphasize to the PCG sailors deployed in the West Philippine Sea the importance of asserting Philippine sovereignty and sovereign rights without escalating tensions. This directive aligns with the explicit guidance of President Ferdinand Marcos Jr., reinforcing the commitment of the PCG to uphold national interests while maintaining peace in the West Philippine Sea.

PCG Takes Action Against Illegal Swarming by Chinese Maritime Militia In response to reports of illegal swarming by Chinese Maritime Militia (CMM) in Rozul Reef, the Commandant of the Philippine Coast Guard (PCG) deployed two PCG vessels and an aircraft yesterday to investigate the situation. Upon arrival at Rozul Reef, the PCG confirmed the presence of over 50 CMM vessels, both scattered and clustered together. The PCG vessels and aircraft promptly challenged these vessels via radio, notifying them that they were operating within the Philippines' Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ), approximately 130 nautical miles off the coast of Palawan. The PCG emphasized that the irregular patterns of movement, along with their anchoring and swarming activities, violate the principles of freedom of navigation and infringe upon the sovereign rights of the Philippines in its EEZ. The Chinese Maritime Militia vessels were directed to clarify their intentions, cease their swarming behaviors, and navigate in accordance with the Philippine Maritime Zones Act, the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS), and the 2016 Arbitral Award. Unfortunately, no response was received from the CMM vessels. To ensure accurate documentation of the situation, the PCG deployed their RHIBs (Rigid Hull Inflatable Boats) to approach the CMM vessels in the shallow waters of Rozul Reef and record their bow numbers. The Philippine Coast Guard remains committed to safeguarding the country's maritime jurisdiction in the West Philippine Sea. It continues to monitor and address any unauthorized activities within our Exclusive Economic Zone in accordance with the policy direction of President Ferdinand Marcos, Jr. of not surrendering a square inch of our territory to any foreign power through resolute but non-escalatory actions based on international law.
