PH ship pushes Chinese vessel from Zambales <br /><br />Philippine Coast Guard (PCG) vessel, BRP Teresa Magbanua, achieves a milestone by successfully pushing the Chinese Coast Guard (CCG) vessel CCG-3304 further away from the coast of Zambales, now estimated to be at a distance of 100-105 nautical miles, the PCG says on Jan. 30, 2025. Despite CCG-3304's assertions that it was patrolling within China's maritime jurisdiction and refusing to recognize the arbitral award, the BRP Teresa Magbanua emphasized that the Chinese vessel lacked legal authority and was, in fact, violating the Philippine Maritime Zones Act, the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS), and the 2016 arbitral award. In addition, the PCG has been monitoring the presence of three other CCG vessels off the coast of Zambales. CCG-5901 is currently approximately 103.63 nautical miles away, CCG-3502 is about 115.22 nautical miles, and CCG-3103 is positioned approximately 134.10 nautical miles from the coast of Zambales. <br /><br />VIDEO BY PHILIPPINE COAST GUARD <br /><br />Subscribe to The Manila Times Channel - https://tmt.ph/YTSubscribe <br /> <br />Visit our website at https://www.manilatimes.net <br /> <br /> <br />Follow us: <br />Facebook - https://tmt.ph/facebook <br /> <br />Instagram - https://tmt.ph/instagram <br /> <br />Twitter - https://tmt.ph/twitter <br /> <br />DailyMotion - https://tmt.ph/dailymotion <br /> <br /> <br />Subscribe to our Digital Edition - https://tmt.ph/digital <br />Sign up to our newsletters: https://tmt.ph/newsletters <br /> <br />Check out our Podcasts: <br />Spotify - https://tmt.ph/spotify <br /> <br />Apple Podcasts - https://tmt.ph/applepodcasts <br /> <br />Amazon Music - https://tmt.ph/amazonmusic <br /> <br />Deezer: https://tmt.ph/deezer <br /><br />Tune In: https://tmt.ph/tunein <br /><br />#themanilatimes <br />#tmtnews <br />#philippines <br />#tragedy
