00:00 Despite the continued harassment of China by the Philippine ships in the West Philippine

00:06 Sea, the resupply missions for the soldiers there will continue.

00:10 AFP Chief of Staff General Romeo Browner Jr. is confident that they will not leave Ayungin

00:17 Shoal.

00:18 It is our responsibility, our obligation to supply our soldiers to the BRP, Sierra Madre

00:27 and Ayungin Shoal.

00:28 According to Browner, a holistic approach is needed on how to do that.

00:33 They are in consultation with the Philippine Coast Guard, Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic

00:41 Resources and with the Philippine fishermen here.

00:44 They will also continue their activities such as the supplying of diplomatic protest and

00:50 consultation with officials of China.

00:54 Despite this, it is not yet time for the Philippine-US mutual defense treaty to be implemented.

01:00 It is in accordance with the agreement that the Philippines will defend the United States

01:04 if there is an armed attack.

01:07 The water cannon cannot be considered an armed attack.

01:14 The Department of Foreign Affairs is calling Chinese Ambassador to the Philippines Wang

01:18 Zilian.

01:19 This is to complain about the subsequent incidents of harassment by China against the ships of

01:24 the country in Bajo de Masinloc and Ayungin Shoal.

01:27 The first to be confirmed by Foreign Affairs Spokesperson Teresita Daza was the call to

01:31 Wang.

01:32 Yesterday, the DFA also said that it has already highlighted the demarche or the declaration

01:37 of the position related to the incidents.

01:39 The Chinese Foreign Ministry confirmed that they are also in the same boat against the

01:43 Philippines.

01:44 Their spokesperson, Mao Ning, is a professional, controlled, capable, and strict.

01:51 And the actions of the China Coast Guard are in accordance with the law.

01:55 The Philippines is responsible for the whole incident because it did not fulfill its promise

02:01 to the Philippines to remove the damaged BRP Sierra Madre from Ayungin Shoal.

02:08 The former President and the former President have not promised anything to China.

02:15 As for the former protestors of the Philippines, the construction of structures in the Mischief

02:23 or Panganiban Reef is a major achievement in the aerial mission of the Bureau of Fisheries

02:30 and Aquatic Resources, Kabakilan.

02:32 The Philippines is also the recipient of the Marisol Abduraman Exclusive.

02:38 In the Escoda Shoal that entered the Exclusive Economic Zone of the Philippines, the four

02:45 Chinese Maritime Militia Vessels anchored here can be seen from the air.

02:49 While we are approaching the Mischief or Panganiban Reef, the Chinese are already firing flares

02:54 from the Mischief Reef.

02:55 But we are still close enough to see the six huge cities in the middle of the sea.

03:10 We are now 500 feet above sea level and from here in our vicinity, what you can see here

03:17 in our background is the structure of China here in the Mischief Reef.

03:21 And you can see that there are trucks blocking the runway.

03:25 Aside from the Chinese forces, we also saw the Hangar, a large residence, sports complex,

03:32 Olympic-sized swimming pool, eight basketball courts and others.

03:37 And while we were in the air, their radio challenge did not stop.

03:41 We also saw the Chinese vessels that were guarding the BR Piscera Madre that was anchored

03:47 in the Yungin Shoal.

03:48 This area is now being surveyed by the Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources.

03:52 When did it start?

03:53 How many ships and boats of the Philippines were hit by water from the ships of China?

03:58 Our primary mission is to provide the air cover to the supposed to be made Christmas convoy

04:12 for the Ayungin Resupply.

04:14 We saw two Philippine vessels as well as the PCG vessels, but they were already being

04:24 anchored by the Chinese vessels.

04:27 It looks like they were not really attached to the BR Piscera Madre.

04:32 You can also see from the air the blocking of the rubber boats of the Philippine Navy

04:37 and the rigid hull inflatable boats of China so that the Philippine missions cannot get

04:44 close to the BR Piscera Madre.

04:46 They are increasing and they are becoming more aggressive to block the shoals, especially

04:51 the entry to the shoals.

04:53 That is why our fishermen are not able to enter.

04:58 It is 500 feet above sea level and from here we can already see the BR Piscera Madre that

05:05 is being surrounded by ships of China, including their Coast Guard, Navy and Chinese militia.

05:13 According to BFAR, more than a dozen ships were blocked by the Piscera Madre.

05:17 They are blocking the entry to the Piscera Madre.

05:24 If you notice, especially on the east side, it is there because the vessels that are supposed

05:31 to be resupplied will come from there.

05:34 In Julian Phillip Reef, the great wall of ships and maritime militia of China is being

05:39 built one after another.

05:41 We have already seen more than 100 Chinese militia.

05:45 They are more than 100, based on what we saw earlier.

05:50 We are also seeing a flare being fired from a shoal that is being occupied by Vietnam.

05:56 Sir, what does it mean when a flare is fired?

05:59 They are like on guard.

06:01 On guard?

06:02 Yes.

06:03 We are waiting.
