Tian Junli, spokesperson for the Chinese People’s Liberation Army (PLA) Southern Theater Command, said this in a statement following the Philippines’ so-called joint patrols with countries outside of the region, which had undermined peace and stability in the region.
The PLA Southern Theater Command on Friday organized a bomber formation to conduct a routine patrol in the South China Sea, according to the spokesperson.
