"Russian attack sub spotted in West PH Sea(SCS)"
"[....]One of the sources confirmed that the underwater vessel was the Russian Navy’s Ufa, a Kilo II-class diesel-electric submarine. It was first spotted 148 kilometers (80 nautical miles) west off Occidental Mindoro on Nov. 28 and had come from Malaysia, the source added.[....]"
"[....]The Russian vessel, however, did not submerge as it moved slowly northward, outside of the country’s territorial waters, until the weekend. Throughout its passage, the Ufa was under the watchful eye of the Philippine Navy’s BRP Jose Rizal.[...]"
Ph media used "territorial waters" instead of their typical "eez" when its china? Also, they seem to not include abt the typhoon missiles installed?
Also, the article said:
"But an international arbitral tribunal ruled in 2016 that Beijing’s claim has no basis under international law."
I dont think the arbitral ruling on SCS, decided abt claims of countries aeound it, only on fishing thing?

"Japan plans to provide defense equipment to the Philippines, Indonesia, Mongolia and Djibouti under its official security assistance to the armed forces of like-minded countries that share its values, a government source said Saturday.
The four countries have been designated as the recipients of the OSA grant aid for fiscal 2024 through March next year, with Japan earmarking 5 billion yen ($33 million) in its initial budget for the current fiscal year, the source said.
Tokyo launched the OSA in April 2023 to help recipient countries ramp up their defense capabilities amid security concerns like China's growing military assertiveness in the Asia-Pacific region.
According to the source, Japan plans to provide the Philippines with radar to help the Southeast Asian country deal with China's expanding military presence in the South China Sea.
Philippine vessels have been encountering Beijing's repeated aggressive actions in the South China Sea, where there are overlapping territorial claims among countries such as the Philippines and China. China claims sovereignty over almost the entire South China Sea.
Last year, the Japanese government decided to provide Manila with a coastal surveillance radar system under the new grant aid program. The Philippines had been designated as an OSA recipient for fiscal 2023 along with Malaysia, Bangladesh and Fiji.
Mongolia, bordering China and Russia, is expected to be given air traffic control equipment, while Indonesia and Djibouti could receive equipment, possibly vessels, to ensure their maritime security, the source said."
Based on the japanese media, the osa seem to be targeting China? Does it mean they also hav access or backdoor to the data from the radar?

Pinoys see US carrier in the region, thinks they have protection or something. Honestly now is probably a good time to teach Pinoys a hard lesson, everybody is too busy to care about them anyways, including the Chinese people.
Curious does PH also hav like anti CN troll farms?
Yes, CCTV did many exposé on them before, /r/Philippines is an example also.
