China has stated that Taiwan must "assume all consequences" following an incident involving a Taiwanese Coast Guard water cannon deployed against a Chinese fishing vessel. The confrontation occurred near the Pratas Islands, a territory administered by Taipei but claimed by Beijing in the South China Sea.

In an unrelated domestic incident in the Dominican Republic, authorities arrested a man who entered the Mencía Primary School in Barahona armed with a machete and threatened the institution's director. The arrest failed to restore immediate calm to the educational community, resulting in heavily reduced student attendance.
