Japan has accused China of conducting unnotified maritime scientific research within its exclusive economic zone (EEZ) around its southernmost island in the Pacific Ocean, Tokyo said on May 27.

TOKYO -

The alleged activity took place on May 26 near the remote atoll of Okinotori in the Philippine Sea, roughly halfway between Taiwan and Guam. China has said it does not constitute an island.

Japan's coast guard on May 26 spotted a Chinese maritime survey vessel "extending what appeared to be a wire into the waters in Japan's exclusive economic zone 270km east of Okinotori island", government spokesman Yoshimasa Hayashi told reporters.
