The China Coast Guard (CCG) is continuing routine law enforcement patrols in the waters east of China's Taiwan Island, a spokesperson said Saturday.

Jiang Lue, a spokesperson for the CCG, said the CCG's Xiushan ship formation took over from the Daishan ship formation on Saturday to continue the law enforcement patrols, in accordance with the law in the waters east of China's Taiwan Island.

Since June, the formation led by the Daishan vessel has carried out patrol and inspection operations, as well as fishery protection and rescue missions in the relevant waters, ensuring normal navigation and fishing activities and safeguarding the legitimate rights and interests, as well as the lives and property, of Chinese fishermen, including Taiwan compatriots, Jiang said.

The CCG will continue to strengthen law enforcement patrols in waters under China's jurisdiction and resolutely safeguard national territorial sovereignty and maritime rights and interests, the spokesperson said.
