A Philippine C-208 aircraft illegally intruded into the territorial airspace over China's Huangyan Dao in the South China Sea on Tuesday, according to the exclusive footage released by China Media Group on Friday.
The footage shows that the Philippine aircraft had several foreign journalists on board, staging photos to deliberately stir up the situation.
In response, the Southern Theater Command of the Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA) organized naval and air forces to track, monitor, and warn off the intruding aircraft in accordance with the law and regulations.
China's actions throughout the entire process were professional and restrained.
The intrusion came after the Chinese government had delimited and announced the baselines of the territorial sea adjacent to Huangyan Dao on Nov 10, 2024.
