菲律宾于周四表示，其部署了一艘船只和一架飞机，以“干扰并驱离”一艘在中国最北部巴坦群岛省外海进行“未授权”海洋科学研究的中国科考船。
The Philippines said Thursday it deployed a vessel and aircraft to “disrupt and drive” away a Chinese research vessel conducting “unauthorized” marine scientific research off the northernmost Batanes province.
菲律宾海岸警卫队（PCG）发言人杰伊·塔里拉（Jay Tarriela）在一家美国社交媒体公司的声明中表示，海岸警卫队部署了“特雷莎·马格班阿”号（BRP Teresa Magbanua, MRRV-9701）巡逻舰和PCG“岛民”号飞机，旨在“对中国科考船‘嘉海科7’号（JIA HAI KE 7）进行质问、干扰其活动并将其驱逐出菲律宾水域”。他说，自9月28日海岸警卫队首次确认该船存在以来，这艘中国船只一直“在菲律宾专属经济区内游荡，位于巴坦群岛伊特巴亚特镇西北约37海里（43英里）处”。
The Philippine Coast Guard (PCG) deployed BRP Teresa Magbanua (MRRV-9701) and the PCG Islander aircraft to “challenge the Chinese research vessel JIA HAI KE 7, disrupt its activities, and drive it away from Philippine waters,” spokesman Jay Tarriela said in a statement on US social media company He said the Chinese vessel has been “loitering inside the Philippine Exclusive Economic Zone, about 37 nautical miles (43 miles) northwest of Itbayat, Batanes, since the PCG first confirmed its presence on 28 Sept.” “During the operation, China Coast Guard vessel CCG-2503 abruptly arrived in the vicinity. It moved toward BRP Teresa Magbanua and issued repeated radio challenges. BRP Teresa Magbanua, in turn, shadowed the CCG vessel at about 1,000 yards while remaining close to the research vessel,” said Tarriela.
塔里拉表示：“在行动期间，中国海警船CCG-2503突然抵达附近。它向‘特雷莎·马格班阿’号驶去，并多次进行无线电喊话。作为回应，‘特雷莎·马格班阿’号在距离中国海警船约1000码的地方对其进行了伴航，同时保持贴近该科考船。”
“Moving to shield a supposedly private research vessel (JIA HAI KE 7) conducting illegal MSR in another country's EEZ raises serious questions about who JIA HAI KE 7 is really working for.
“出动海警船去掩护一艘在别国专属经济区内进行非法海洋科研的所谓‘私人’科考船（嘉海科7号），这引发了关于‘嘉海科7号’到底在替谁效力的严重质疑。”
“It also raises questions about what data the vessel has collected over the country's undersea cable corridors in the Luzon Strait over the past four days,” he said.
他补充说：“这也让人对该船过去四天在吕宋海峡该国海底光缆走廊收集了哪些数据产生了疑问。”北京尚未对马尼拉方面的说法作出回应。
