The statement accused the ruling Democratic Progressive Party in Taiwan of using “all sorts of excuses to forcefully inspect Chinese fishing vessels, and using violent and dangerous methods towards Chinese fishermen.”

The unnamed Chinese vessel had been sailing about one nautical mile off the coast of an islet of Kinmen island, Taiwan’s Coast Guard Administration said in a statement. The Chinese vessel attempted to flee but capsized.

Anyone in some WeChat groups want to share what they're saying on this?

Isn't this the same shit everyone was flipping out about when China did it to Filipino fishermen who were "trespassing"? At least in that case nobody died. RIP.

No... Because China is claiming an island that is nowhere near their internationally recognized borders and on an island they don't even have people on...

In this case, Chinese fisherman were within Taiwans EEZ. And their boat capsized as they tried to flee.
