00:00The National Maritime Council will discuss their next step after the recent harassment of the Philippine Coast Guard.

00:10This time, the Philippine Air Force is in danger due to the flares set off by the Chinese Air Force.

00:18The Philippine Air Force will hold a diplomatic protest.

00:22Witness, Chino Gaston.

00:24Not only in the sea, the so-called dangerous maneuvers of China are happening to the Filipinos in Scarborough or Panatagshol.

00:34This Thursday, the Philippine Air Force's airplane experienced the dangerous maneuvers of the People's Liberation Army Air Force.

00:42According to the AFP, their NC212 aircraft is carrying out a routine maritime patrol.

00:48This Thursday morning, two Chinese airplanes were hit by flares on the Philippine Air Force's runway.

00:55The NC212 was safely returned to the Clark Air Base.

00:59But according to the AFP, the Chinese airplane made a dangerous maneuver.

01:03The flares are for defense against missiles and should not be used against other airplanes.

01:09Very dangerous. For instance, those flares reached our aircraft.

01:15It can hit the propeller or the intake, or it can even burn our aircraft.

01:24Yet, the Southern Theater Command of China is illegal and affected.

01:28In their training and exercise activities, our airplane entered the airspace of Panatagshol.

01:35Several times, the Chinese airplane made dangerous maneuvers.

01:38The Diplomatic Protest and the DFA were shocked by the action of China,

01:42especially when the two countries agreed to ease the tension in the bilateral consultative mechanism.

01:50That's why we talked. But certainly, as I said, we reached an understanding the other week,

01:55and then this will happen. So naturally, it's something we have to really consider.

01:59Well, I don't know why they did it. That's all I can say. It certainly took us by surprise.

02:03The National Maritime Council will discuss its next step.

02:07All they have on their side is brute force, and strength, and might. And that's what they're going to do.

02:13Hopefully, they'll listen to reason.

02:16Well, they're already doing it. China is already doing it. Not just us.

02:22But even the other aircraft in the South China Sea, in the area of Japan, Australia.

02:28That's what China is doing.

02:31The National Task Force for the West Philippine Sea was also called to harass what China did.

02:36It was said that the safety of the Philippine crew was at risk since they have no ties to the Chinese jets.

02:42However, according to the AFB, the patrol is still ongoing.

02:46In the midst of China's harassment, maritime domain awareness flights and patrols in the West Philippine Sea will still continue.

02:53It is said that China's alliance is strong while the Philippines holds the right and recognition of its EEZ

03:01that is given under international law.

03:04On the Balintang Channel, between Batanes and Bambuyan Islands,

03:08four maritime militia ships were seen by China, according to maritime security expert, Ray Powell.

03:13It is said that the ships remained illegal and reversed course on the Balintang Channel.

03:19Now, they are only allowed to pass through the Innocent Passage, according to UNCLOS.

03:23We are still trying to get the PCG's opinion on this.

03:27For GMA Integrated News, Chino Gaston, your witness.

03:32Kapuso, let's be witnesses together.
