BREAKING:
China has launched flares at a Philippine Coast Guard plane, with Philippine Coast Guard spokesperson Rear Admiral @jaytaryela on board, flying near Mischief Reef in the Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) of the Philippines.
The plane was filming the massive scale of the illegal land reclamation by the Chinese government in the area.
China established control there in 1995, initially claiming that it was “only building a shed for fishermen.”
Today, they have built artificial islands with a total reclaimed area of 1,379 acres (558 hectares) which they have developed into China’s largest military outpost in the South China Sea, featuring runways, hangars, radar systems and air defense systems.
In 2016, the United Nations arbitral tribunal ruling (Philippines v. China) under UNCLOS declared that Mischief Reef is falls within the Philippines’ EEZ and that China’s claims and activities there violate Philippine rights.
China rejected the ruling.
The reef lies only 120 nautical miles from the Philippines and is more than 600 nautical miles away from China.
China continues is aggression and land theft from the Philippines under its “ten-dash line” lie
