Indo-China conflict

There has been constant tension between India and China along the Line of Actual Control in Ladakh for the last three years.

Three years later, on 15–16 June this year, there was a violent clash between the armies of the two countries over LAC in the Galwan Valley of Ladakh in which 20 soldiers, including a colonel of the Indian Army, were killed.

India claims that Chinese soldiers have also been damaged but China has not said anything about it.

After this, there was news of a skirmish between the two countries on the night of 29-30 August and the Indian Army said that "Indian soldiers have stopped the provocation of Chinese troops in Pangong Tso Lake".
