Philippines calls for Gaza ceasefire and law-based South China Sea settlements

Original: Philippines urges Gaza ceasefire, says South China Sea disputes must be settled by law, not might

The Philippines has urged a ceasefire in Gaza, while arguing that maritime disputes in the South China Sea must be resolved through international law rather than force. The statement links two of the world's most watched flashpoints and positions Manila as a defender of the rules-based order, at a time when its own tensions with China over contested waters remain high.

Why now: The Philippines is publicly connecting the Gaza war to its own maritime dispute with China, appealing to international law on both fronts.
