According to a message on January 27 from the official WeChat account of the China Coast Guard, Gan Yu, spokesperson for the China Coast Guard Bureau, stated that on January 27, the Japanese fishing vessel "Tsurumaru" and several patrol vessels illegally entered the territorial waters of China's Diaoyu Dao. China Coast Guard vessels took necessary control measures against them in accordance with the law and warned them to leave.

DiaoyuDao and its affiliated islands are China's inherent territory, and China Coast Guard vessels carry out maritime rights-protection and law-enforcement activities in waters under China's jurisdiction in accordance with the law. We urge the Japanese side to immediately stop all illegal activities in these waters and ensure that no similar incidents occur again.
