Philippines accuses China of using water cannons against its vessels for second day

The Philippines accused the Chinese Coast Guard of firing water cannon at its government vessels near the disputed Scarborough Shoal in the South China Sea on Friday (Jul 24), marking the second straight day of confrontations there.

The latest incident follows another confrontation a day earlier where China said it had tracked and driven away two Philippine vessels it accused of having "intruded into" waters near the shoal despite warnings. #china #chinanews #philippines #philippinenews
