Meanwhile, the Philippine Coast Guard confirmed that it recently rotated personnel aboard the Sierra Madre and delivered necessary supplies to the ship.
China’s coast guard said the shipment was carried out without proper authorization and considered the Philippine vessel’s presence “illegal” because it was in territory China claims as its own. In turn, the Philippine authorities have not yet commented on the Chinese statement.
