The Philippine Coast Guard clarified Thursday that a Chinese vessel did not ram a Filipino fishing boat in waters off Pangasinan last Monday, killing 3 fishermen.
"As a spokesperson for the Philippine Coast Guard for the West Philippine Sea, I can already tell the public that this is definitely not Chinese maritime militia," Commodore Jay Tarriela said in a TeleRadyo Serbisyo interview.
Initial reports said 3 fishermen were killed after a ship, believed to be the Marshall Islands-flagged Pacific Anna, rammed the Filipino Fishing Boat Dearyn off Bajo de Masinloc last Monday. Tarriela clarified that Bajo de Masinloc was only used as a point of reference, adding the actual site of the incident was 85 nautical miles — 157.42 kilometers — from the shoal.
