The Coast Guard's Kinmapeng Branch stated that the National Day holiday has just ended, and four more Chinese Coast Guard ships were detected intruding in Kinmen waters today. The 12th Patrol Area took the lead and immediately dispatched patrol boats to respond, monitoring and driving away the entire process.

The Kinmapeng Branch pointed out that at around 8 a.m., the 12th Patrol Area detected abnormal formations of four Chinese Coast Guard ships, "14608", "14531", "14607", and "14529", approaching the restricted waters of Kinmen. The Coast Guard immediately dispatched patrol boats to move to the outside lines of the restricted waters to deploy accordingly.

At around 9 o'clock, the Chinese Coast Guard ships broke into Kinmen's restricted waters in a column from the south of Lieyu Township in Kinmen. In addition to conducting "one-on-one" parallel navigation monitoring, the coast guard vessels collected evidence throughout the process, and used strong broadcasts in Chinese and English and close-in denial to prevent the coast guard ships from continuing to penetrate into our waters, demonstrating their determination to uphold sovereignty and maintain maritime security. The Chinese Coast Guard all sailed out of Kinmen waters at 11:08.

The Kinmen-Pengheng Branch pointed out that the Chinese Coast Guard’s intrusion into the Kinmen waters is a “pretend to enforce the law but really expand its powers” ​​based on its navigation behavior. It is an attempt to unilaterally undermine the status quo and seriously threatens maritime security and navigation order.

The Coast Guard calls on the China Coast Guard to immediately stop any harassing behavior that may cause conflicts or escalate confrontation. The Coast Guard will continue to deploy ships around the clock and closely monitor response situations to safeguard national sovereignty and maritime security.

Open Questions

  • Will the China Coast Guard increase the frequency of patrols in the future?
