BEIJING, Aug. 11 (Xinhua) — The China Coast Guard (CCG) took necessary measures to expel several Philippine maritime police vessels and service vessels from territorial waters off China's Huangyan Dao Island in accordance with relevant laws and regulations on Monday, said CCG spokesperson Gan Yu.
According to Gan Yu, Philippine vessels persistently entered the specified waters of the South China Sea under the pretext of supplying fishing vessels, ignoring repeated warnings and cautions from the Chinese side.
In response, the BOC ships took necessary measures to displace the Philippine vessels in accordance with the law, including tracking, monitoring and blocking. All actions by the Chinese side on the ground were professional, standardized and legal, Gan Yu said.
Huangyan Dao Island is an inalienable part of China's territory, and the BOC will continue to carry out law enforcement activities to protect rights and ensure law and order in the waters around Huangyan Dao Island, resolutely safeguarding China's territorial sovereignty as well as its maritime rights and interests, Gan Yu concluded. -0-
