NEWS FLASH:

Japanese and Chinese "coast guards" confront each other again in Senkakus. Three Chinese maritime surveillance vessels entered Japanese territorial waters on Friday near the Senkaku Islands, a Japanese-controlled islet group claimed by China, the Japan Coast Guard said.
Chinese vessels last intruded into Japanese waters on Monday and it was the 44th such incident since last September, when the Japanese government purchased three of the five main islands in the group, which China calls Diaoyu, from a Japanese owner.
