China patrols Scarborough Shoal after Philippines warns of threat

China's military and coast guard patrolled near Scarborough Shoal on Sunday. This happened after the Philippines warned it still faces a "severe threat" from China. Philippine and U.S. forces just finished a joint maritime exercise in the same waters. The patrols are China's way to counter "rights violations and provocative acts."
