AFP public affairs office chief Col. Xerxes Trinidad said the latest incident occurred approximately 11.8 nautical miles southeast of Panatag Shoal.
-
One of the Chinese frigates was documented closely tailing the Emilio Jacinto while the other was dangerously crossing the bow of the Philippine ship in a high-risk maneuver that could have potentially ended up in a collision.
Trinidad said the CCG vessel also attempted to obstruct the Emilio Jacinto's navigational path.
The AFP said such reckless actions were a violation of the International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea or COLREG.
"The Armed Forces of the Philippines expresses its serious concern over these irresponsible actions by Chinese maritime forces. Such threatening and provocative conduct can lead to misunderstanding that may escalate tensions and impact regional stability."
The AFP meanwhile commended the "professionalism, discipline and restraint" shown by the officers and crew of Emilio Jacinto.
