Chinese jets intercept Philippines patrol plane

The Philippines has complained of dangerous actions by Chinese aircraft.
Two Chinese aircraft dropped flares in the path of a Philippine aircraft during a routine patrol. The Chinese military countered that the Philippines had disrupted its training, accusing Manila of "illegally intruding" into its airspace.
Philippine President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. condemned Chinese air force actions in waters of the South China Sea, claimed by both countries, calling the actions "unjustified, illegal and reckless".
