Philippine patrol boat damaged in collision with Chinese Coast Guard vessel
A Chinese Coast Guard vessel with the bow number 21559 deliberately rammed the BRP 'Datu Pagbuaya' nearThitu Island, a part of the Spratly Islands, a territory claimed by several countries, but where China claims almost complete sovereignty—despite an international ruling that invalidated this claim, on Oct 12, 2025. The 'Datu Pagbuaya', which is part of the Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources fleet that supports local fishermen, was first fired at with a water cannon and then struck in the stern by a Chinese Coast Guard boat three minutes later. No injuries were reported, but the vessel siffered minor damage. China denies the allegations, stating that the Philippine vessel ignored repeated warnings and “approached dangerously close, thus causing the collision. The Philippine authorities condemned the incident as “intimidating and aggressive behaviour” and emphasized that they will maintain their presence in the area to protect local fishermen. The US Ambassador to Manila, MaryKay Carlson, condemned the Chinese actions as “dangerous” and praised the Philippine crew for their “courage and skill.” Two other Philippine fisheries vessels were also blasted with water cannons during the confrontation, about 1.6 nautical miles rom Thitu. No one was hurt and no major damage was reported.

Philippine patrol boat damaged by Chinese Coast Guard vessel
The 'Datu Pagbaya' was attacked by the China Coast Guard in the waters around Scarborough Shoal on Nov 3, 2024. The Philippine Coast Guard stated that Chinese navy and Coastguard vessels had taken aggressive actions against a routine patrol by it and the fisheries bureau near the contested Scarborough Shoal in the South China Sea. The ship 3302 of the Chinese Coastguard fired a water cannon at the PCG vessel, aiming directly at the vessel's navigational antennas, which faced blocking, shadowing, and dangerous manoeuvres. The Chinese ship then intentionally sideswiped the 'Datu Pagbaya' at starboard side and launched a second water cannon attack on the same vessel. The Philippine ship was damaged in the attack.
