The Philippines released yesterday several photographs showing different stages of reclamation work being done by the Chinese on Mabini (Johnson South) Reef, apparently in preparation for construction of an airstrip. In a statement, the Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) said the photos were gathered from Philippine intelligence sources, and blasted Beijing for violating the Declaration on the Conduct of Parties in the South China Sea (DOC) and international law for its destabilizing move. "Mabini Reef is part of the Kalayaan Island Group (KIG) which is a part Philippine territory," DFA said.
