A video has surfaced on social media showing a Chinese Coast Guard ship colliding with a Chinese navy destroyer while both pursued a Philippine patrol vessel in the South China Sea. The clash occurred near the disputed Scarborough Shoal on Monday, August 11, as Philippine patrol boats escorted dozens of fishing vessels distributing aid. Reportedly, the Chinese ships attempted to block the convoy and fired a water cannon in an intimidation attempt. Video released by the Philippine Coast Guard shows the smaller coast guard vessel, CCG 3104, making a risky manoeuvre that resulted in it slamming into the larger PLA Navy warship, leaving its bow crumpled and "unseaworthy." Germany Summons China Ambassador After Chinese Navy Ship Allegedly Points Laser at German Military Aircraft in Red Sea.
