"US and Philippines conduct largest-ever joint military exercise amid rising tensions in South China Sea"

 "US and Philippines recently conducted their largest-ever joint military exercise in the South China Sea, involving over 17,600 military personnel. The exercise aimed to enhance the interoperability and capabilities of both countries' armed forces and address security challenges in the region. The US provided a range of aircraft, while the Philippine military contributed fighter jets, helicopters, and artillery. The exercise was watched live by Philippine President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. The drill was carried out amidst rising tensions between the US and China, with China claiming that the exercise was an 'attempt to target China'. The US and the Philippines have maintained a mutual defense treaty since 1951, and the Balikatan exercises are a tangible manifestation of their military partnership under the Enhanced Defense Cooperation Arrangement (EDCA)."
