In early August, India sent an operational naval group of ships to the South China Sea and the western Pacific Ocean

NEW DELHI, August 24. /TASS/. Ships of the Indian Navy conducted naval maneuvers with ships of the Philippine Navy in the South China Sea over the past day. As the official representative of the Indian Navy Vivek Madhwal told reporters, the exercises were held in the western part of the South China Sea, which Manila officially calls the West Philippine Sea.

"The joint actions carried out during the exercises included a number of operational maneuvers, and the ships of both fleets were satisfied with the consolidation of operational compatibility achieved through this interaction at sea," Madhwal was quoted as saying by NDTV on Tuesday.

According to him, the Indian Navy was represented by the destroyer "Ranvijay" and the corvette "Cora", the Philippine Navy-the frigate "Antonio Luna".

"Both navies remain committed to further strengthening bilateral cooperation in the maritime sphere to achieve the collective goal of ensuring a stable, peaceful and prosperous Indo-Pacific region," the representative of the Indian Navy said.

In early August, India sent an operational naval group of ships to the South China Sea and the western Pacific Ocean on a two-month campaign. As the press service of the country's Navy reported at the time, the group's action plans include participation in bilateral maneuvers with ships of the Navies of Vietnam, the Philippines, Singapore, Indonesia and Australia. As well as participation together with the ships of the Japanese, Australian and US Navies in the multilateral maneuvers "Malabar", which will be held in the western Pacific Ocean.
