南部戰區新聞發言人田軍里空軍大校表示，1月20日，菲律賓1架公務機未經中國政府允許，非法闖入中國黃巖島領空。中國人民解放軍南部戰區組織海空兵力，依法依規警告驅離。菲方行為嚴重侵犯中國主權，嚴重違反中國法律和國際法相關規定。黃巖島是中國固有領土。我們正告菲方立即停止侵權挑釁和不實炒作。

　　Air Force Senior Colonel Tian Junli, spokesperson for the PLA Southern Theater Command stated, on January 20, a Philippine government aircraft illegally intruded into the territorial airspace over China’s Huangyan Dao without the approval of the Chinese government. The naval and air forces dispatched by the PLA Southern Theater Command warned and expelled it in accordance with law and regulations. The Philippine action has severely infringed upon China's sovereignty and gravely violated the relevant provisions of Chinese law and international law. Huangyan Dao is China's inherent territory. We urge the Philippine side to stop immediately infringing upon China's rights, making provocations and to cease irresponsible hype.
