Chinese Coastguard tried to block Philippines from supplying fishermen
The Philippines on Feb 25, 2024, accused the Chinese Coastguard of attempting to block the BRP 'Datu Sanday' from delivering supplies to fishermen, the second such alleged incident near a disputed reef in two weeks. The BRP 'Datu Sanday' was supplying fuel to fishermen near the Scarborough Shoal when it was harassed by a China Coast Guard vessel and three other Chinese ships on Febr 22. Three of the four Chinese vessels came within 100 metres of the bow. An incident report also listed shadowing, vessel transponder jamming and other dangerous manoeuvres. Despite these manoeuvres, the naster of the ship managed to evade the blocking attempts. A week earlier, the BRP 'Datu Tamblot' had a similar encounter in the area.
