The Chinese military has announced that the US destroyer USS Higgins entered the disputed waters of Scarborough Shoal without approval, and that Chinese forces monitored and 'chased it away'. China's Southern Theater of Operations Command emphasized that these actions were necessary to protect national sovereignty. The US did not immediately comment on the issue, and China claims almost the entire South China Sea, despite disputes with other nations in the region.
