Both China Coast Guard (CCG) and the Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA) Southern Theater Command carried out the relevant patrols in the territorial waters of China's Huangyan Dao and surrounding areas on Saturday. These actions are aimed at resolutely safeguarding national sovereignty and security and firmly maintaining peace and stability in the South China Sea region, according to official announcement.

The CCG carried out law-enforcement patrols in the territorial waters of China's Huangyan Dao and surrounding areas on Saturday. Since November, the CCG has continued to step up law-enforcement patrols in these waters, lawfully tracking and monitoring, issuing warnings and blocking or expelling vessels and aircraft engaged in illegal intrusion or disruptive activities, according to the CCG. These efforts further strengthen the management and control of the relevant maritime areas and firmly safeguard China's territorial sovereignty and maritime rights and interests.

The PLA Southern Theater Command deployed naval and air forces to conduct combat-readiness patrols in the territorial waters, airspace and surrounding areas of China's Huangyan Dao on Saturday. Since the beginning of November, the theater's forces have continuously reinforced patrols and vigilance in the maritime and airspace areas around China's territorial waters of Huangyan Dao, further strengthening control over the relevant sea and air zones, the PLA's Southern Theater Command said in an announcement. These actions are aimed at resolutely safeguarding national sovereignty and security and firmly maintaining peace and stability in the region.
