12月28日下午，国防部举行例行记者会，国防部新闻局局长、国防部新闻发言人吴谦大校答记者问。
记者：据报道，菲军政官员多次表示，中国海警在仁爱礁附近使用水炮袭击菲律宾船只，并对菲船进行冲撞，引发地区局势紧张。此外，菲方称中方还使用远程声波装置和军用级激光器攻击菲船员，请问对此有何评论？
吴谦：有关言论纯属不实炒作。菲方不顾中方一再劝阻，执意派船闯入中国仁爱礁邻近海域，还以挑衅性方式冲撞中国海警船并导致刮蹭，这种行径是非常危险的，也是极不专业的。中国海警依法采取必要措施予以规制，完全合理合法。
我们注意到，菲方号称“人道主义运补”，但运补船队里却搭载着大量媒体记者，发了很多假消息。依我看，这哪是什么人道主义运补，这完全是“碰瓷”，是作秀。至于使用所谓“声波”和“激光”武器，完全是无中生有。中方既没有意图，也没有必要使用类似装置。中方始终致力于通过对话协商解决分歧，共同维护海上稳定，但也不会对菲方一而再、再而三的挑衅滋事坐视不管。
Wu Qian: This is purely false hype. The Philippine side, in disregard of repeated warnings from the Chinese side, insisted on sending vessel to intrude into the adjacent waters of China’s Ren’ai Jiao, and provocatively rammed a China Coast Guard vessel and caused scratch. Such behavior is very dangerous and extremely unprofessional. The China Coast Guard took necessary enforcement measures in accordance with law, which were totally justified and legitimate. We noted that the Philippine side had claimed to conduct humanitarian supplies. However, those supply vessels carried many journalists and propagated disinformation.
In my view, this is not humanitarian supply at all, it is to deliberately create an incident, play victim and make a show in the name of humanitarian supply. As for the so-called sonic or laser weapon, this is entirely groundless accusation. China has no intention or necessity to use such devices. China is always committed to resolving differences through dialogue and consultation and making joint efforts to maintain maritime stability, but we will not turn a blind eye towards the Philippine’s repeated provocations and harassment.
