Taiwan authorities decided on May 12 to dispatch a fleet to conduct regular patrol in waters to the south of the island to guard fishing boats following the shooting-death of a Taiwanese fisherman by the Philippine side at sea.
The fleet is made up of three coast guard ships loaded with cannons and machine guns, as well as a naval vessel carrying a S70-C helicopter.(Photo Source: huanqiu.com)
