    China takes control measures against Philippine vessels in South China Sea

    BEIJING (Reuters) -China's coast guard said it took control measures against two Philippine vessels on Wednesday which it said "illegally intruded" into waters near Subi Reef and Sandy Cay in the disputed South China Sea.

    One of the Philippine vessels also "dangerously" approached and collided with a Chinese coast guard ship, China Coast Guard (CCG) spokesperson Liu Dejun said in a statement, adding that responsibility "lies entirely" with the Philippine side.
