China Using Water Cannons on Philippine Ships

Video footage shows Chinese ships firing powerful blasts of water towards the Philippine government vessels.
The Philippines called China’s actions “illegal and aggressive”.
The South China Sea is at the centre of a territorial dispute between China, the Philippines and other countries.
The incident happened near Scarborough Shoal, a flashpoint between the two countries. Beijing seized the shoal in 2012 and Chinese boats have since harassed Philippine fishermen in the area.
