The Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA) conducted patrols around the Scarborough Shoal (Chinese: Huangyan Dao, Filipino: Bajo de Masinloc) in the South China Sea, where it has a dispute with the Philippines, by sending missile-equipped fighter jets. This move is assessed as an effort to strengthen military presence in the region and reinforce territorial claims.
