Foreign correspondents and journalist groups in the Philippines have condemned China over claims of video manipulation, labeling them as 'barefaced lies'. The controversy centers around Chinese foreign ministry spokesperson Hua Chunying's accusations against journalists embedded in the Philippines' resupply missions to Ayungin Shoal, alleging manipulation of their work. In response, China has reiterated its stance, urging journalists and relevant organizations to maintain objectivity and accurately report facts. FM spokesman Lin Jian emphasized China's openness to Philippine journalists covering events and called for comprehensive and accurate reporting. Meanwhile, tensions in the South China Sea have escalated, with China accusing the Philippines of provocation and the U.S. of meddling, attributing recent escalations to the Philippines' harassment and provocations, which they claim violate international law.
