Ongoing gray-zone confrontations in the South China Sea, including vessel rammings, water cannon incidents, and minor personnel injuries near Scarborough Shoal, Second Thomas Shoal, and Sabina Shoal through mid-to-late 2026, have sustained bilateral friction without crossing into lethal military engagement. Both governments have consistently managed these encounters at the coast guard level, issuing competing accusations while avoiding actions that could activate the U.S.-Philippines Mutual Defense Treaty or trigger broader escalation. Manila has deepened security cooperation through joint exercises with the United States, Japan, and other partners, while Beijing has maintained assertive patrols and administrative measures. Traders appear to view these patterns as consistent with contained disputes rather than precursors to open conflict before the end of 2026.

A "military encounter" is defined as any incident involving the use of force such as melee weapons, missile strikes, artillery fire, exchange of gunfire, or other forms of direct military engagement between Chinese and Philippine military forces. Non-violent actions, such as warning shots, artillery fire into uninhabited areas, or missile launches that land in territorial waters or pass through airspace, will not qualify for a "Yes" resolution. Intentional ship ramming that results in significant damage to (e.g., a hole in the hull) or the sinking of a military ship by another will count toward a "Yes" resolution, however minor damage (scrapes, dents) will not.
Note: the China Coast Guard (CCG) is part of the military, however, Philippine Coast Guard (PCG) is not.
The resolution source for this market will be a consensus of credible reporting.
