A Philippine vessel held its position against a China Coast Guard (CCG) ship on Saturday, the Philippine Coast Guard has reported. PCG spokesperson Commodore Jay Tarriela yesterday said the 44-meter multi-role response vessel BRP Cabra monitored the movements of CCG 3105 on March 8, and prevented it from approaching the Zambales coastline. Despite wave heights reaching three to five meters, the Cabra maintained its position, keeping the CCG vessel at a distance of more than 95 nautical miles off the coast, Tarriela said.
