On the afternoon of the 24th, four ships of the China Coast Guard invaded Japan's territorial waters off the coast of the Senkaku Islands in Okinawa Prefecture, and the Japan Coast Guard continues to warn them to leave the territorial waters immediately.

According to the 11th Regional Coast Guard Headquarters, at around 4:30 pm on the 24th, four ships of the China Coast Guard, which were navigating the connecting waters just outside the territorial waters of Japan, were on the fishing islands and Taisho islands of the Senkaku Islands. Offshore, they invaded Japan's territorial waters one after another.

As of 4:40 pm, two of the four vessels sailed approximately 21 km southwest to 22 km west-southwest of Fishing Island, and the other two sailed within Japanese waters approximately 20 to 21 km south of Taisho Island. As a result, we continue to warn the Maritime Security Headquarters to leave the territorial waters immediately.



This is the 16th time a China Coast Guard ship has invaded the territorial waters off the coast of the Senkaku Islands, following the 11th of this month.
