The Chinese Coast Guard (CCG) released on Sunday a video showing a Filipino vessel blocking the Philippine boat carrying the resupply mission in Ayungin Shoal at the west Philippine ea.

In a 23-second clip uploaded by Shanghai Daily, China's coast guard said that the Philippine vessel had ignored repeated warnings, crossed the bow of the Chinese ship and "deliberately provoked trouble" which caused the collission.

The Philippines on Monday called China an "aggressor", accusing it of "increasing tensions" in the South China Sea and causing the collision that damaged one of Manila's boats during a resupply mission.

No one was harmed when a Chinese coast guard ship and one of Manila's smaller wooden resupply boats made contact on Sunday, but the incident has drawn international condemnation and expressions of concern from the United States.

"All incidents like this will bolster the case that it's not the Philippines that's the aggressor, but the other party, which is China," Philippine foreign ministry spokesperson Teresita Daza told a joint news conference on Monday.
