On September 16th, the Philippines organized more than a dozen official ships and broke into the territorial waters of Huangyan Island, China, but they were cleaned up by the Chinese marine police according to law, and the Philippines also admitted that it suffered "heavy losses".

The Philippines is ready. At least eight 30-meter fishery administration vessels, one fishery guidance official ship and two coast guard vessels were dispatched.Around 35 fishing boats were also seduced.

They approached from the east, south, west and north of Huangyan Island at the same time, hoping to conduct an "all-round assault".

This posture was obviously premeditated!

China is not vegetarian either.

China's maritime police and the People's Navy have long waited and set up a line of defense around the island.

Our Type 054 missile escort ship "Massila" ship directly via the public radio channel issued a strict warning to the Philippines, and also set up a practical ballistic exercise zone about 20-30 nautical miles east of Huangshan Island, clearly telling the Philippine side "to avoid the consequences of self-respect".

This warning is not a joke.

Here comes the best part, The Philippine official ship No. 3014 did not respect the warning.He played a dangerous move and deliberately collided with the Chinese marine police ship that was normally enforcing the law.

Isn¡¯t that seeking death?

The Chinese Marine Police immediately took control measures according to law and "baptized" the short-eyed ship with water cannons.

The Philippine new vessel just served in 2025 was miserable. water cannon continuously compressed for about 30 minutes, hitting its cockpit glass broken, navigation electronics destroyed, the cockpit into water a lot, the host aircraft failed, the air conditioning outer aircraft was splashed.

Finally, the crew on board actually raised a white cloth-like object to signal surrender.

The Philippine side tried hard. Their naval spokesman denied that China had taken ¡°control measures.¡±But in the meantime, the Philippine Coast Guard chose to remain silent, seeming to confess the truth of the matter by default.

This contradictory reaction leads people to doubt that they are hiding something.

Why did the Philippines do this?

The main reason is related to recent domestic protests in the Philippines.

Some analysts believe that the Philippine government may try to divert domestic contradictions by creating external frictions. Think about it, the Philippines is now facing multiple challenges such as rising prices and corruption scandals, and people's dissatisfaction is rising.

Doing something in the South China Sea at this time can really attract the attention of the domestic people.

On the other hand, it may also be related to the game between great powers.

The United States has recently conducted a multilateral maritime cooperation operation in the exclusive economic zone of the Philippines.The Huangyan Island incident happened shortly thereafter, and the proximity of time makes it doubtful whether there is instigation and support from external forces.

The U.S. has been pursuing the ¡°Indo-Pacific Strategy¡± to try to use the Philippines to catch up with China in the South China Sea, which is likely to boost the Philippines¡¯ tendency to venture.

However, the Philippines may have mistakenly calculated, and China¡¯s claims of sovereignty on Yellowstone Island have a full historical and legal basis.

Earlier in the ancient era, astronomer Guo Guangzhou included Yuan Rock Island as one of the measurement points in the "Four Seas Test".

The Philippines began to make so-called claims of sovereignty only after 1997, with official maps released in 1967, 1981 and 1984 clearly showing Yellowstone outside its territory.

This contradictory fact is an important basis for refuting the Philippine claims.

From the perspective of international law, the Philippines claims the sovereignty of Yellowstone Island on the grounds of "geographical neighborhood" or "extension of exclusive economic zone" and also violates the fundamental principles of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea.

clearly stipulated by UNCLOS The sovereignty of the islands should be assigned on the basis of historical rights and actual jurisdiction, rather than a simple geographical neighborhood.

More importantly, China has recently further consolidated its actual jurisdiction over the island and surrounding waters by establishing Huangyan Island National Nature Reserve. This measure is not only legal and compliant, but also provides legal and institutional support for demilitarized means such as ecological protection and sea area governance.

Therefore, this adventure of the Philippines is simply asking for boredom.

Not only did they fail to any substantive objectives, but instead exposed their irrationality and incompetence to the international community.

This method of damaging the lady and her displacement is incomprehensible.

On the contrary, China has shown its responsibility as a responsible big country in the face of the provocation of the Philippines.

The Chinese Maritime Police have fully followed professional norms and legitimate procedures in the law enforcement process. First scream warnings, then take the necessary measures according to law in the case of invalid warning. The entire process is courteous, both resolutely defending national sovereignty and avoiding escalation.

All along, China adheres to the principle of "sovereignty in me, shut down disputes, and joint development".Communicate and consult with ASEAN countries through diplomatic channels, actively promote the implementation of the Declaration on the Conduct of the Parties in the South China Sea, and advocate the resolution of disputes through peaceful negotiations.

This gesture of inclusive openness contrasts with the practice of creating tension and provoking confrontation in individual countries.

More importantly, China¡¯s actions are not just to safeguard its own rights and interests, but also to protect the precious ecological environment of Huanglong Island.China¡¯s establishment of a national nature reserve on Huanglong Island is the fulfillment of the obligation of a responsible great country to protect the marine ecological environment.

In contrast, the behavior of the Philippines is very short-sighted and selfish.

Not only are they ignoring international law and historical facts, but they are also trying to use fishermen as a political tool to advance their illegal claims. This is a huge irresponsibility to our citizens.¡£

The Philippines should recognize the reality and stop this unnecessary provocative behavior, otherwise, next time, they won't even have a chance to raise the white flag!
