Note: this video has been updated to clarify that while Indonesia has expressed concern about South China Sea disputes, Jakarta is not making a nautical claim in the area.

The Philippines has accused China’s coastguard of building a “floating barrier” in a disputed area in the South China Sea. Philippine authorities released a video showing several Chinese coastguard vessels near the floating barrier in part of the Scarborough Shoal on September 20, 2023. Manila said the barrier prevented Philippine fishermen from entering and fishing in the area.
