China's Coast Guard personnel acted like a "band of barbarians" during a Philippine resupply mission to Ayungin Shoal in the West Philippine Sea this week that led to injuries and damage to vessels, a senior navy official said on Thursday.A Philippine sailor suffered serious injury after what its military described as "intentional-high speed ramming" by the Chinese Coast Guard, aiming to disrupt a resupply mission for troops stationed on Ayungin Shoal .
"The Philippine ships not only carry building materials, they also smuggled weapons and equipment and deliberately rammed Chinese ships," said ministry spokesperson Lin Jian."Non-personnel have also splashed water and thrown objects at Chinese law enforcement officers, which has obviously aggravated the tense situation at sea, seriously threatening the safety of Chinese personnel and vessels," Lin told a regular press briefing.
