The Philippines does not consider China a threat to national security but has expressed “serious concerns” over the presence of its bombers in the disputed South China Sea, Malacañang said Monday. China's air force has reportedly deployed nuclear-capable bombers on islands on the South China Sea as part of training exercises in the disputed region. The latest air exercises aimed to “reach all territory, conduct strikes at any time, and strike in all directions," Beijing reportedly said.
