On March 23, the Philippines military successfully completed a resupply mission to Ayungin Shoal in the West Philippine Sea, despite aggressive actions from Chinese vessels, including the use of water cannons. The cargo was transferred by inflatable boats from Philippine ships to BRP Sierra Madre. The Philippines Coast Guard ship BRP Cabra reached the Philippine supply boat Unaizah May 4 to provide assistance after it was significantly damaged by water cannons from Chinese coast guard ships. Japan expressed grave concern over the repeated dangerous actions by the Chinese Coast Guard in the South China Sea, resulting in Filipino injuries, and reiterated its solidarity with the Philippines. The United States condemned China's provocations in the South China Sea, highlighting the injuries to Filipino crew members, undermining regional stability, and disregard for international law. China vowed to safeguard its territorial integrity following the incident. The Philippines summoned Beijing's envoy in Manila to protest the aggressive actions by Chinese vessels, and the Philippines' defense minister dared China to take its claims of sovereignty in the South China Sea to international arbitration.
