    also "China used water cannons" sounds harmless until you remember that the word "cannon" is there for a reason and we're talking about a violent assault with high-pressure water hoses, half a step short of an open military attack.
    the Philippines have documented the attack with journalists, go look it up here on RUclips.

      I was both in awe and absolutely annoyed about the necessity of this when I heard about the Philippines ‘Angels of the Sea’ communication unit.
      Seriously, how much ego-care and motherly love does the PLA navy need so they realise that harassing a fishing boat with a crew of six is
      not a security measure,
      not making them look strong and
      certainly not decent behaviour on the high seas.

    The water cannon attacks are a lot worse than presented. The attacks have also led to a Philippine Navy sailor being injured.
    The attacks have led to significant destruction of the resupply ship's structures, rendering the vessel no longer seaworthy until repairs have been made.
    Other actions performed by the PRC on the disputed territories included hovering a helicopter 20 meters above Filipino academic researchers performing studies on a small island with dead corals. Downwash from the helicopter sent dead corals all over the Filipino researchers, significantly wounding them. These dead corals are also connected with the PRC's aggressive land reclamation actions on the islands.

  • @bwhog

    For context, the ship was grounded there with a Philippine flag and is used as a Taiwanese outpost in order to give the Philippines a physical presence on the island which cannot otherwise be staffed. If they did not do this, China would immediately seize control of the area. So this is no small thing. If China can successfully push them away from that island, the will be free to dominate a sizeable area that is claimed otherwise by the Philippines with no way for them to push China out again short of conflict.

It's like if Nazi Germany was never defeated/removed from power, and Israel became their ally do to a common threat. It's insane.
