'Two Steps Forward, One Step Back': The Chequered Story of India and China's Border Tensions
New Delhi: In the summer of 2017, while we were on our way to Bum La Pass, about 37 kms off Tawang in Arunachal Pradesh along the India-China border, two junior Army officers flagged down our vehicle. They needed a lift to the border.
New Delhi: In a massive escalation between India and China, at least 20 Indian Army soldiers, including a Colonel, have been martyred in a violent clash on Monday night with Chinese troops at the Galwan Valley in the Ladakh sector.
At least 20 Indian soldiers have been killed in a "violent faceoff" with Chinese forces on the disputed Himalayan border, the Indian army said late on Tuesday, the deadliest clash between the nuclear-armed neighbours in decades.
China urges India to restrain
In an event that Chinese experts call the most severe situation China and India have experienced along the border in decades, a fatal physical clash broke out on Monday between the two countries' border defense troops in the Galwan Valley.
Violent faceoff on China border: Officer among 20 Indian soldiers dead; casualties on both sides
India-China violent faceoff: “During the de-escalation process underway in the Galwan Valley, a violent face-off took place yesterday night (Monday night) with casualties on both sides,” the Army said in an official statement.
North Korea blew up an inter-Korean liaison office on its side of the border on Tuesday, the South’s Unification ministry said, after days of increasingly virulent rhetoric from Pyongyang.
