China fisherman dies in clash with S Korea coast guard


The crew of a Chinese trawler and a South Korean patrol ship have clashed, leaving one fisherman dead and two missing, South Korean officials say.

The clash reportedly happened as the coast guards tried to prevent Chinese boats from fishing illegally off South Korea's west coast.

Video filmed by the coast guard shows officers fighting with fishermen wielding metal bars.

Four coast guard officers were injured, reports say.

Mr Ji said one of the boats intentionally struck the patrol ship to try to allow the others to sail back into their waters - but the boat sank after the impact.

Well, its obvious that there is a lack of respect to South's waters too.
Unlike Japan, SK are pretty aggressive..

RIP!

Thats good. Everyone facing territorial threat from china should standup against it, no matter even if its fishermans.

The footage gave me reminder of isral-palestine episode.
