تصاعد التوتر في بحر الصين الجنوبي مع تصادم الفلبين والصين مرة أخرى

For the second time in a week, Philippine and Chinese ships have collided in the disputed South China Sea, marking a significant escalation in tensions between the two countries. The latest incident involved aggressive maneuvers and the use of water cannons by Chinese coast guard ships against a Philippine fisheries vessel. Both nations are trading blame over the collisions, with China accusing the Philippine vessel of initiating a 'deliberate' collision, while the Philippines alleges 'aggressive and dangerous' moves by Chinese vessels, including a navy ship. These confrontations occur amidst ongoing disputes over territorial claims in the South China Sea, a strategic and resource-rich waterway claimed by several countries.
