China's Coast Guard claims that a Philippine vessel ignored repeated warnings and "deliberately collided" with a Chinese vessel in a "dangerous and unprofessional" manner in the South China Sea on August 19.

“This action by the Philippines seriously infringes on China’s sovereignty,” said foreign ministry spokesperson Mao Ning in Beijing.
China urged the Philippines to stop infringing on its sovereignty and warned that the Philippines would bear full responsibility for any consequences.

The Philippines, however, disputed China's account and accused Beijing of "imposing its version of facts."
