PCG vessel hits China coast guard ship that blocked its path

The Philippine Coast Guard vessel BRP Sindangan accidentally hit a China Coast Guard ship that blocked its path on Saturday.

According to a report on "24 Oras," the Philippine Coast Guard said the CCG boat 4103 chased the Philippine vessel and blocked its path to prevent it from catching up with the resupply boat Unaizah May 4.

The PCG vessel accidentally hit the Chinese ship because of the latter's speed.

A video clip showed the hole suffered by the Chinese vessel.

Another footage showed how BRP Sindanagan and BRP Cabra were surrounded by boats of China's coast guard and the maritime militia. —NB, GMA Integrated News
