Philippines’ Marcos Summons Chinese Envoy After Laser Incident

 Philippine President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. has summoned China’s ambassador to express his “serious concern” after a Chinese ship aimed a military-grade laser at a Philippine vessel in the South China Sea.

The Philippine coast guard on Monday said a Chinese coast guard ship directed a green laser light twice toward a Philippine vessel while it was on a resupply mission near Second Thomas Shoal in the South China Sea on Feb. 6, causing “temporary blindness” to the crew.
