Despite the intimidating armada of Chinese vessels, Atin Ito has successfully installed markers 14 nautical miles off Palauig Point in Zambales within the country's 200-nautical-mile EEZ.

"Atin Ito Coalition is now in EEZ and has successfully deployed symbolic buoys and markers bearing the message: WPS, Atin Ito!" Atin Ito Coalition said in a post.

The BRP Bagacay is still present on the mission to escort the civilian convoy on its second day of mission.
