南部战区空军新闻发言人李健健空军大校表示，8月21日，菲律宾岛人机、C-208、PA-31T等3架小型飞机未经中国政府批准，非法侵入中国黄岩岛领空。中国人民解放军南部战区组织海空兵力，依法依规跟踪监视、喊话警告。菲方行为严重侵犯中国主权，极易引发误解误判。我们正告菲方立即停止侵权挑衅。战区部队时刻保持高度戒备，坚决捍卫国家主权安全和地区和平稳定。
Senior Colonel Li Jianjian， spokesperson for the PLA Southern Theater Command (STC) Air Force: On August 21, three small Philippine aircraft —an Islander, a C-208, and a PA-31T — illegally intruded into China’s territorial airspace over Huangyan Dao without approval of the Chinese government. The naval and air forces dispatched by the PLA STC tracked and monitored the Philippine aircraft, and issued verbal warnings to them in accordance with laws and regulations. The acts of the Philippine side seriously violate China’s sovereignty, and are highly likely to cause misunderstanding and miscalculation. We sternly warn the Philippine side to stop rights-violation and provocative acts immediately. Forces of the STC remain on high alert at all times to firmly safeguard national sovereignty and security as well as regional peace and stability.
