Chinese marine surveillance ships continued to conduct regular patrols of the territorial waters surrounding the Diaoyu Islands on Thursday, the State Oceanic Administration said.
A fleet consisting of the Haijian 66, Haijian 46 and Haijian 26 carried out the mission, according to a statement on the administration's website.
"Haijian" is the Chinese equivalent of "marine surveillance."
