According to the WeChat public account "China Coast Guard", Jiang Lue, the spokesperson for the China Coast Guard, stated that on July 7, the Japanese fishing boat "Reibao Maru" illegally entered China's territory around the Red Island. Chinese Coast Guard ships took necessary control measures and warned the vessel to leave the area. The Diaoyu Islands and their affiliated islands are an inherent part of China's territory. We urge the Japanese side to immediately stop all acts of infringement and provocation in this area. The China Coast Guard will continue to carry out rights protection and law enforcement operations within the territorial waters around the Diaoyu Islands and their affiliated islands, to safeguard China's territorial sovereignty and maritime rights and interests.
