00:00 Mission accomplished, the Philippines delivered supplies to the soldiers
00:05 at BRP Sierra Madre in Ayuninsho.
00:08 But it was not easy.
00:09 The Philippines' ships were radio challenged and blocked by China Coast Guard ships.
00:15 Joseph Moro has a report.
00:17 China has indisputable sovereignty over the Nanshan Islands,
00:25 including the Jirayu Reef and its adjacent waters since ancient times.
00:30 This is China's radio challenge to BRP Cabra,
00:33 which the Philippine Coast Guard said was in the West Philippine Sea yesterday.
00:37 The Coast Guard and the resupply boat were sent to Ayuninsho.
00:41 The BRP Sindangan was also informed by the PCG.
00:45 This is Philippine Coast Guard vessel BRP Sindangan, MRRV 4407,
00:51 conducting lawful routine maritime patrol within the Philippine Exclusive Economic Zone.
00:57 In accordance with international and Philippine national laws,
01:00 we are proceeding according to our planned route.
01:03 In the spirit of humanism, we only permit your ship carrying food
01:08 and other necessary living materials and rotating personnel
01:13 without construction materials to the illegally granted vessel. Over.
01:18 You are within Philippine Exclusive Economic Zone.
01:22 Your action will affect Philippine-China relations
01:26 and will be reported to concerned authorities. Over.
01:29 Sabina Shoal will be found 248 kilometers from Palawan.
01:33 It will enter our Exclusive Economic Zone.
01:36 Government vessels are not allowed to enter.
01:39 To avoid miscalculations, leave and keep silent.
01:42 Otherwise, you bear full responsibility for all the consequences.
01:47 We request that you stay clear from our passage in accordance with the collision regulations. Over.
01:53 China still blocked our ships and at one point, it stopped in front of the PCG ship.
01:59 A large ship of the China Coast Guard was also boarded, the small supply boat of the Philippines.
02:04 In the air, there is a flying airplane with a navy,
02:08 which according to Agence France-Presse TV, is a P-8 Poseidon plane of America.
02:13 A ship of the China Coast Guard also seemed to have flexed its water cannon.
02:17 Sir, the water cannon has activated the 5305.
02:21 Despite the whole ship being flat on the sea, the resupply mission to the BRP Sierra Madre was successful.
02:27 The AFP was surprised that there was a discussion in China.
02:30 We don't need to make arrangements or even ask permission from them.
02:35 The PCG was noticed.
02:37 We have a very tiny vessel. They have a humongous size of China Coast Guard vessel.
02:42 So every time we capture that photo, they are being widely condemned in different parts of the globe.
02:49 So they now modified their style. They deployed smaller vessels.
02:54 Earlier this afternoon, the two resupply boats returned to Palawan.
02:58 Pizza and ice cream were served to the soldiers with high morale.
03:03 Long live the Philippines!
03:05 Joseph Morong reporting for GMA Integrated News.
