Ten Chinese Marine surveillance ships and two Chinese fishery administration ships have arrived in waters near the Diaoyu Islands, with two more China fishery administration ships on the way.

The twelve Chinese ships carried out law enforcement, fishing, and patrol activities in waters around the area on Tuesday. Japan's patrol ships closely followed, but no action was taken. As fishing season begins, more China's fishery ships are expected to fish in waters surrounding the Diaoyu Islands.

Fisherman will continue to be protected by China's fishery administration ships in the area. Japan's media reported that Japan's Coast Guard has assembled many patrol ships, and tightened watch in waters near the Diaoyu Islands.
