MANILA: Senator Imee Marcos warned that 25 areas in the country could be targets of a possible Chinese hypersonic missile attack due to the increase in Enhanced Defense Cooperation Agreement (Edca) sites and the brewing tensions in the West Philippine Sea.

Marcos said that among the 25 areas are the Ilocos region, a frequent site of war games between Manila and Washington, as well as Batanes and Subic in Zambales, where she said the country’s new missiles had been installed.
