The China Coast Guard (CCG) reported that it had authorized and overseen a Philippine resupply mission on Wednesday. The mission was directed towards a warship that had been deliberately grounded at Ren'ai Reef in the South China Sea.

According to CCG spokesman Liu Dejun, the Philippines was permitted to send a civilian vessel to deliver supplies to the grounded boat. The Chinese side granted this permission.

During the resupply operation, the CCG conducted inquiries, verification, and provided full supervision of the Philippine vessel.

China has called upon the Philippines to uphold its commitments and collaborate to manage the maritime situation.

The CCG also stated its intention to continue lawful rights-protection and enforcement activities in the Nansha Islands, including Ren'ai Reef and the surrounding waters.
