<p>Recently, China and the Philippines put their flags on a disputed sandbar in the South China Sea, Sandy Cay, escalating tensions between the two countries. The incident occurred after the Chinese Coast Guard claimed to have taken control of the reef and the Philippines reacted by landing its own forces. Philippine officials dispute China's claims, saying the facts on the ground do not support its claims.
