The Philippines said the China Coast Guard fired water cannon at a government vessel on Wednesday during a maritime patrol near the disputed Scarborough Shoal. Video released by Manila on Wednesday appeared to show a China coast guard ship hitting the right side of the BRP Datu Pagbuaya, a fisheries department vessel, with the crew shouting, "Collision! Collision!". In a separate incident, Beijing said it had taken "control measures" against Philippine ships it accused of "illegally gathering" near Iroquois Reef in the disputed Spratly Islands.
