Philippine navy warns off Chinese vessel shadowing them near disputed islands

The Philippine Navy warned off a Chinese vessel for allegedly shadowing them in disputed waters in the South China Sea on Friday.

The Philippine Navy's (PN) BRP Benguet (LS507) was on a routine resupply mission to the Rizal Reef Station when it encountered China's People's Liberation Army Navy Ship 621 (PLAN 621) blocking its course line some 5.8 nautical miles off Pag-asa Island on October 13.
