A Taiwanese fishing boat and four coast guard ships returned from contiguous waters of the Diaoyu Islands today without reaching the islands, local media reported.
To bring a sea goddess statue to the islands, the boat, named "Happy Family" in English, left Taiwan early this morning and sailed to the contiguous zone at around 11: 05am with the four guarding ships.
The five vessels returned at about 1pm as they were impeded by ships of Japanese Coast Guard, according to Japan's broadcaster NHK.
Sino-Japanese tensions have boiled over after Japan "purchased" Diaoyu Islands in September in 2012 despite opposition from the Chinese government. Local authorities in Taiwan have also protested the move.
