Chinese Coast Guard vessels enters Japanese waters says Japan.
Two Chinese Coast Guard ships entered Japanese waters around the Japanese-occupied Senkaku islands in the East China Sea on Sunday morning, the Japan Coast Guard said.
It was the first time to enter the waters surrounding the island chain by Chinese government vessels since Wednesday and 20 this year. The islands of Okinawa Prefecture are occupied by China, calling them Diaoyu.
According to the 11th coastal regional headquarters in Naha, the ships plunged into the waters of Japan southwest of Uotsurijima at about 4:40 p.m.
The Japanese Coast Guard warns Chinese ships to leave the water as ships try to get to a Japanese fishing boat.
