Beijing News According to the China Maritime Police, Gan Yu, a spokesman of the China Maritime Police Bureau, said that on June 17, the Philippines violated its commitment and sent one cargo ship and two inflatable boats illegally into the waters adjacent to Ren'ai Reef in the Nansha Islands, China, in an attempt to deliver goods to the illegal "beachhead" warships. During this period, the Philippine transport replenishment vessel approached and deliberately collided with Chinese vessels sailing normally. The Chinese maritime police have taken such control measures as warning and blocking, boarding inspection, and forced eviction of Philippine ships in accordance with the law, and handled them reasonably, legally, and professionally. We once again warn the Philippines that any form of infringement and provocation is futile. The Chinese maritime police are on full alert and ready to defend China's territorial sovereignty and maritime rights and interests.
