MANILA. April 12 (Bloomberg): The Philippines will restart military drills with the US on Monday as the South-East Asian nation seeks to speed up vaccine deliveries from its longtime defense ally.

US and Philippine defence secretaries discussed the South China Sea situation and the recent massing of China’s vessels at Whitsun Reef in a phone call on Sunday (April 11).

Philippine military says spots more 'illegal' South China Sea structures
10 Apr 2021 / 08:59 H.
MANILA, April 1 (Reuters) - The Philippine military said on Thursday it had documented illegal manmade structures on Union Banks in the South China Sea's Spratly Islands, near areas where hundreds of Chinese vessels had massed last month.
Military chief Lieutenant General Cirilito Sobejana said the structures were not far from islands and features claimed by the Philippines inside its exclusive economic zone.
He did not say which country had built the structures or the extent of the construction.
They were discovered on March 30, during one of the military's maritime flight patrols over the South China Sea, where it has been closely monitoring the activities of the Chinese vessels believed to be manned by militias.

International Political Scenario for Philippines 2 – 9 April 2021 - New Delhi Times - India's Only International Newspaper

The Philippines government has said that more than 250 Chinese vessels which it believes are operated by militia, have been spotted near six Manila-claimed islands and reefs in the disputed Spartly islands of the South China Sea and demanded that China immediately remove them. The gathering of the Chinese-flagged vessels, along with four Chinese Navy ships at a Chinese-occupied manmade island base, “is hazardous to navigation and safety of life at sea” and may damage coral reefs and threaten the Philippines’ sovereign rights, a government body overseeing the disputed waters said. The Philippine military said it could not confirm if 92 vessels spotted at Chigua Reef and 84 at Gaven Reef were part of the original flotilla.

South China Sea dispute: Philippines finds illegal structures on reefs near where Chinese boats gathered

The Philippines says it has discovered illegally built structures on features in the Union Banks, a series of reefs in the South China Sea.
The reefs are near where Manila says a flotilla of Chinese fishing vessels, allegedly manned by militias, have gathered in recent weeks.
The country's military said the structures were spotted during maritime patrols conducted on Tuesday, but it did not give the precise location of the structures or more details as to who erected them or as to their construction, saying only their presence violated international law.
