Manila, Ta. 29. Sunday, March, 2021

China, which has always maintained a tense situation with India and other countries, yesterday sent 20 fighter jets to Taiwan's airspace to threaten Taiwan.

China is now in conflict with the Philippines. China is in dispute with the Philippines over some areas of the South China Sea and China has now sent 220 ships there. These ships have besieged the disputed island.

The island is claimed by China and the Philippines and is located 200 nautical miles from the Philippines. However, the Philippines has sent its fighter jets in response to China's right to encircle the island.

The Philippines believes that there are armed men on board the ships. The Philippines has demanded that China immediately lift its siege of the island by these ships.

The Philippines says we will increase our presence in the South China Sea. So that the fishermen of the country may be protected.

Earlier, China had denied rumors of a siege, saying Chinese ships had set out to catch fish and had taken refuge near the island due to bad weather.
