Philippines says its coast guard ship and supply boat are hit by Chinese vessels near disputed shoal_我的网站

A |     MANILA, Philippines -- A Chinese coast guard ship and one of its militia vessels separately bumped a Philippine coast guard ship and a military-run supply boat Sunday off a contested shoal, Philippine officials said, in a serious flareup that could heighten fears of an armed conflict in the disputed South China Sea.A top Philippine security official told The Associated Press there were no injuries among the Filipino crew members and an assessment of the damage to both vessels was underway. The official added that the incidents near the Second Thomas Shoal could have been worse if they were not able to maneuver rapidly away from the Chinese ships. The official spoke on condition of anonymity due to a lack of authority to publicly discuss details of the incidents.The United States, a longtime treaty ally of the Philippines, immediately condemned the actions by China's ships. The Philippine government also condemned the latest confrontations in “the strongest degree” and called them a violation of Manila’s sovereignty.The Chinese coast guard said the Philippine vessels “trespassed” into what it said were Chinese waters “without authorization” despite repeated radio warnings, prompting its ships to stop them. It blamed the Philippine vessels for causing the collisions."The Philippine side’s behavior seriously violates the international rules on avoiding collisions at sea and threatens the navigation safety of our vessels,” the Chinese coast guard said in a statement posted on its website.The U.S. Ambassador to Manila, MaryKay Carlson, said in a post on X, formerly known as Twitter, that “the United States condemns the PRC's latest disruption of a legal Philippine resupply mission to Ayungin shoal, putting the lives of Filipino service members at risk.”She used the initials for China's formal name, the People's Republic of China, and the name the Philippines uses for the Second Thomas Shoal. She added that Washington was standing with its allies to help protect Philippine sovereignty and to support a free and open Indo-Pacific region.A Philippine government task force dealing with the South China Sea disputes said the collisions occurred as two Philippine supply boats escorted by two Philippine coast guard ships were heading to deliver food and other supplies to the atoll in the face of a years-long Chinese blockade.The task force said it “condemns in the strongest degree the latest dangerous, irresponsible, and illegal actions of the Chinese coast guard and the Chinese maritime militia done this morning in violation of Philippine sovereignty, sovereign rights and jurisdiction."The actions by the Chinese ships were “in utter blatant disregard of the United Nations Charter, the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea” and international regulations that aim to prevent sea collisions, said the Philippine task force, which includes the country’s defense and foreign affairs departments, the military, national security council and the coast guard.Near-collisions have happened frequently as Philippine vessels regularly deliver supplies to Filipino marines and sailors stationed on the disputed shoal. But this was the first time Philippine officials have reported their country’s vessels being hit by China’s ships.In the first incident that happened Sunday morning, “dangerous blocking maneuvers of China coast guard vessel 5203 caused it to collide with the Armed Forces of the Philippines-contracted indigenous resupply boat Unaiza May 2,” the task force statement said. It said the “provocative, irresponsible, and illegal action” of the Chinese coast guard ship “imperiled the safety of the crew."The Chinese coast guard gave a different version and said the Philippine supply boat deliberately crossed the bow of its ship, which was on a routine law enforcement patrol, “resulting in a slight collision."Separately, Philippine coast guard ship BRP Cabra’s left side “was bumped by Chinese maritime militia vessel 00003 while it was lying to” northeast of the Second Thomas Shoal, the statement said.The Chinese coast guard said the Philippine ship “deliberately provoked trouble” by reversing its direction, causing its stern to collide with the Chinese vessel and “heating up the situation at the scene." In the past, Chinese officials have played down claims that the Chinese vessels were military militia ships meant to look like fishing boats.Despite the Chinese coast guard blockade, one of the two Philippine navy-manned boats managed to maneuver past the Chinese vessels and deliver supplies to the small contingent stationed on board a long-marooned but still actively commissioned warship, the BRP Sierra Madre, the task force said.It was the latest flare-up in long-simmering territorial disputes in the South China Sea, one of the world’s busiest trade routes. The conflicts, which involve China, the Philippines, Vietnam, Malaysia, Taiwan and Brunei, are regarded as a potential flashpoint and have become a delicate fault line in U.S.-China rivalry in the region.In early August, a Chinese coast guard ship used a water cannon against one of two Philippine supply boats to prevent it from approaching Second Thomas Shoal. The move, which was caught on video, outraged President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. and prompted the Department of Foreign Affairs in Manila to summon the Chinese ambassador to convey a strongly worded protest.Washington reacted by renewing a warning that it is obligated to defend the Philippines as a treaty ally.The Chinese Foreign Ministry accused Washington of “threatening China” by raising the possibility of activating the U.S.-Philippine mutual defense treaty. Beijing has repeatedly warned the U.S. not to meddle in regional territorial disputes.Later in August, the Philippines again deployed two boats that got past the Chinese coast guard blockade and delivered supplies to the Filipino forces at Second Thomas Shoal. Two Philippine coast guard ships escorting the supply boats, however, were prevented by Chinese coast guard ships from maneuvering closer to the shoal. A U.S. Navy surveillance aircraft flew in circles in support of the Philippine vessels as the standoff continued for more than three hours.A 2016 arbitration ruling set up under the 1982 U.N. Convention on the Law of the Sea invalidated Beijing’s claims on historical grounds to virtually the entire South China Sea. China refused to participate in the arbitration sought by the Philippines, rejected the decision and continues to defy it.___Associated Press journalist Huizhong Wu contributed to this report from Bangkok.。    译者注：原文发表于PhillyVoice，文中数据均截至原文发稿时（当地时间8月25日），所涉及日期和时间均为当地时间。文中观点与译者及平台无关。

B | 詹姆斯在他效力过的每一支球队都夺冠了，那么76人会是下一支吗？如果我在6月告诉你，我8月的一期读者问答会用这个标题，你会相信吗？说句实话，当我无比认真地为一支过去两个赛季连一半比赛都没有赢下的球队敲下这些文字时，我感觉确实十分离奇。过去两年的彻底混乱，竟然演变成了76人如今所处的局面，他们已经拥有一批真正具备争冠实力的球员，NBA历史得分王勒布朗·詹姆斯和2024年NBA总决赛MVP杰伦·布朗都已加盟费城，这实在让人难以想象。

C | 网友提问：如果没有赢得东部冠军，76人都这个赛季是否就算令人失望？距离媒体日大约还有一个月的时间，毫无疑问，有多名76人球员，尤其是核心球员，会被问到这样一个问题：他们是否必须赢得总冠军，这个赛季才算成功。有些球员会回避这个问题，更大胆的球员则会正面回应，而且会说，是的，这支球队唯一的目标就是赢得总冠军。无论这些球员怎么回答，都不会提供什么新消息。

D | 毫无疑问，76人拥有打进NBA总决赛所需要的天赋。

E | 他们大概也拥有足够的火力赢得总冠军。但更重要的是，他们没有太多时间：詹姆斯会在常规赛进行到一半左右时年满42岁，而任何一个乔尔·恩比德能够保持健康并且展现统治力的赛季，都可能是最后一次了。所以，76人并没有太多次冲击总冠军的机会。但他们的机会倒也并不是只有一次。

F | 詹姆斯签下了一份两年合同，其中包含2027-28赛季的球员选项。在宣布加盟76人时，詹姆斯将这称为自己的“最后一个决定”，这意味着他职业生涯剩余的时间都将留在费城。

G | 自从詹姆斯做出这个决定以来，人们已经多次指出一件事：他此前每一次以自由球员身份加盟新球队之后，最终都赢得了总冠军……而且都是在两年后。詹姆斯在2010年加盟热火，并在2012年赢得个人第一枚总冠军戒指。他在2014年重返骑士，随后于2016年拿下了对他而言最具意义的一座总冠军。詹姆斯在2018年加盟湖人，第一个赛季湖人仅取得37胜45负，无缘季后赛，随后他在2020年赢下了NBA总决赛。当然了，现在可别急着印带有76人标志的2028年NBA总决赛纪念T恤。不过，这也说明即使76人没有赢得2027年NBA总决赛，他们至少还会有一次冲击冠军的机会，前提是没有任何事情削弱詹姆斯或恩比德的竞技水平。经历重大阵容重组的NBA球队，即使这些变化很明显会让球队变得更好，通常也不会立刻磨合到位。詹姆斯和恩比德在整个常规赛期间都需要获得休息时间，这会让球队更难建立连续性，尤其是在竞争激烈的东部，那里有很多球队非常清楚自己在关键比赛中最擅长依靠什么。新赛季76人如果没有打进或赢得NBA总决赛，很明显会令人失望，但这并不必然意味着这个赛季就是失败的。真正会让这个赛季成为失败的情况，是76人在进入2027年休赛期时，无法合理地对自己的争冠竞争力保持信心。如果这一整套计划彻底失败，球队就将面临一次重大的重新评估。如果76人证明自己确实是一支非常出色的球队，只是没有及时找到最合适的方式，从而无法一路闯过新赛季的季后赛，那么即使失望是完全合情合理的，进入明年夏天时，他们也至少仍然有理由保留一些乐观的态度。作者：Adam Aaronson译者：GWayNe。
