A Chinese Coast Guard (CCG) ship fired water cannon and sideswiped a vessel of the Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources (BFAR) at the Pagasa Cay 2 in the West Philippine Sea on Thursday morning, May 22, an official of the Philippine Coast Guard (PCG) said.
Commodore Jay Tarriela, PCG spokesperson for West Philippine Sea, said the incident happened while marine scientists on board the two BFAR vessels were conducting marine scientific research at the Pagasa Cay 2, or the Sandy Cay.
Sandy Cay is located less than three nautical miles from Pagasa Island.
The BFAR report stated that its vessels deployed in the area for research were the BRP Datu Sanday and BRP Datu Pagbuaya.
At around 9:30 a.m., the BFAR report said CCG vessel 21559 fired a water cannon and sideswiped the BRP Datu Sanday twice.
