The renewed warning came after Chinese ships blocked and collided with two Filipino vessels near the contested Second Thomas Shoal, raising concerns about regional stability and adherence to international law.On Sunday, a standoff occurred near the Second Thomas Shoal, a part of the Spratly Islands in the South China Sea, where a grounded Philippine navy ship serves as a territorial outpost.
