West Philippine Sea: Warships deployed to monitor China survey vessel off Palawan
The Philippines has deployed a coast guard ship and three warships to monitor the presence of a Chinese research vessel conducting a survey off Palawan...
According to SeaLight director Ray Powell, six militia ships were escorting the Haiyang Dizhi Hao research vessel just 27 nautical miles away from the shores of Palawan on Monday. The research fleet, however, is still outside Palawan’s 12-nautical mile territorial sea, a red line that, once crossed by Beijing, could be seen as a direct threat to Manila’s sovereignty.

they aren't doing research of course: this is how they start to grab the area: Research, then block local fishermen, then send in their fishermen who are paid to work for the military, then accuse the Philippines of aggression when the Philippines tries to protect their fishermen.
