Confrontation in the West Philippine Sea

The video begins by addressing a recent A1 generated video from Chinese media, which mocked Filipinos. It transitions to recounting the latest harassment faced by Philippine soldiers from the Chinese Coast Guard in the West Philippine Sea. The incident escalated as soldiers attempted to defend the BRP Sierra Madre, leading to a physical clash where two Filipino soldiers were injured, and a rubber boat was damaged.

Details of the Incident

A violent confrontation ensued as captured in a video portraying the clash between the Chinese Coast Guard and the Philippine Navy. The altercation occurred at Ayungin Shoal, where the Philippine Navy was stationed. While the Chinese Coast Guard, aboard a larger boat, attacked with longer tools, the Philippine Navy, in a smaller rubber boat, maintained a defensive posture. An Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) statement reported that a Filipino soldier was struck on the head and in need of medical attention.

Escalation of Hostilities

The AFP shared details about the injuries sustained by two soldiers, highlighting one with a significant head injury. Additionally, the engagement involved a Chinese ship, which was seen launching an inflatable boat to film the BRP Sierra Madre. The Philippine Navy's response remained calm and non-confrontational, even as their actions were met with aggression from the Chinese side.

Philippine Armed Forces Response

The AFP condemned the actions of the Chinese Coast Guard, labeling them as aggressive and dangerous. They asserted that the Philippine soldiers acted professionally within the rules of engagement amidst the escalating tensions in the West Philippine Sea. The Philippines called on China to cease illegal and deceptive behaviors and to respect the 2016 Arbitral Award, which supports the Philippines’ rights to the area.

Diplomatic Actions

0:00 Matapos gawing unggoy ang mga Pilipino sa isang A1 generated video ng isang Chinese media. Panibagong pangaharas naman ang ikinasa ng kanilang [musika] coast guard sa mga sundalong Pilipino sa West Philippines Sea. Yan ay nang mauwi sa panghataw ng baton ang kalmadong pagtaboy sa mga Chinese na umikot sa BRP Sierra Madre para kumuha ng mga litrato at video. Sugatan ang dalawang sundalong Pilipino at nasira rin ang rubber boat ng Navy. Nakatutok si Jonathan Andal. [musika] Hampasan ng sagwan at baton ang nakunan sa videong ito sa pagitan ng Chinese Coastgard at Philippine Navy. Kuha ito ng Philippine Navy sa Ayungin Sh sa West

0:46 Philippines kaninang umaga kung saan matatagpuan ang BRP Shera Madre na outpost ng Philippine Navy. Ang nasa mas malaking motor boat ang panig ng China. Ang nasa mas maliit naman na rubber boat ang mga taga-Philippine Navy lamang sa dami ang mga taga-China Coastgu Guard gamit ang kanilang malaking motor boat at mas mahahabang mga pamalo na itulak nila palayo ang mas maliit na rubber boat ng Philippine Navy. Sabi ng Armed Forces of the Philippines na naglabas ng video na hataw sa ulo ang isang Pilipinong sundalo matapos tamaan ng baton na kahoy ng Chinese Coastgard. Sugatan ang ulo ng sundalo na binigyan daw agad ng atensyong medikal pero pinag-aaralan kung kailangan na ang medical evacuation. Pati raw rubber boat ng Philippine Navy nasira sa gitna ng

1:31 gulo. Dalawang tropa natin na injured. Yung isa required force teacher sa kanyang ulo. Almost 2 in yung haba ng kanyang sugat. Yung isa sa braso sa bandang kamay niya sa mga daliri sapagkat sinasangal niya ang hampas sa kanila. Kwento ng AFP. Mula sa Chinese Coastgard ship na may bow 21560, pinakawalan ng China ang rigid hall inflatable boat na may walong sakay. Pinaikutan at kinunan daw nito ng litrato at video ang BRP Shera Madre. Ito ang kinakalawang na barko ng Pilipinas sa Ayungen Shol na may nakaistasyong mga Pilipinong sundalo. Para raw itaboy ang China, naglabas ng dalawang rubber boat sa mga sundalong Pinoy. Pero kalmado at hindi raw confrontational ang ginawa nilang pagpapaalis. Pero sino unang nanghampas

2:17 yung China Fast Guardel? Makita naman natin sa video. Marami silang humahampas. Yung ating mga kasundaluhan purely defensive na pangsanggalang para huwag lang silang matamaan. Tinawag ng AFP na assault ang ginawa ng China Coastgard na inilagay raw sa balag ng alanganin ng buhay ng mga Pilipinong sundalo at nagpataas ng tensyon sa West Philippines Sea. Sabi ng AFP, sa kabila ng tinawag nilang karahasan, nanatiling propesyal, disiplinado at sumunod sa rules of engagement ang mga Pilipinong sundalo habang ginagampanan ng kanilang misyon sa loob ng exclusive economic zone ng Pilipinas. Panawagan ng AFP sa China. Itigil na ang iligal, agresibo at mapanlinlang na kilos sa West Philippines Sea at sumunod sa 2016

3:05 Arbitral Award na iginigitang karapatan ng Pilipinas sa naturang karagatan sa ilalim ng international law. Itong mga ganitong actions ng China Coastgard are totally irresponsible. They are unprofessional. They don't speak of what the Chinese Communist Party has been saying that they are for the peaceful rise of China. Their actions on the ground show otherwise. Sinusubukan pa kunhayag ang Chinese Embassy sa Maynila tungkol dito. Sabi ng Department of Foreign Affairs, anoang marahas na aksyon laban sa Filipino personnel ay hindi katanggap-tanggap. May karampatang diplomatic action daw kaugnay nito. Nakikipag-ugnayan na raw sila sa AFP sa detalye ng insidente. Jonathan Andal nakatutok 24 oras.
