BEIJING, Jan 30 (Reuters) - China’s Coast Guard organised 134 patrols around the Senkaku Islands in the past five years, state-run CCTV said.

In 2025, it patrolled the region for 357 days out of the year, the report said.

Senkaku Islands, administered by Japan but also claimed by China, have long been a flashpoint in relations between the two Asian powers.
