Indonesia started destroying foreign fishing boats as worsening relations over the disputed South China Sea drive countries to take tougher action to defend their maritime sovereignty.
So far 23 boats – 13 from Vietnam and 10 from Malaysia – were blown up in seven different ports on Tuesday, April 05, 2016.
Check out the slideshow below, there are some really impressive explosions.
