China VS India War

China-India standoff in Ladakh

Viral images and posts have surfaced after troops from neighbouring China and India came face-to-face in Ladakh.

Tensions have flared between the old foes as their soldiers camped out in the Galwan Valley in the high-altitude Ladakh region, accusing each other of trespassing over the disputed border, the trigger of a brief but bloody war in 1962.


The image below has been shared hundreds of times on Facebook and Twitter here, here andhere claiming to show Indian troops holding up a banner asking Beijing to “please go back” on May 26.

Pakistani Twitter began trolling New Delhi over their “cowardice” up against the Chinese army which is in stark contrast to their “atrocities against innocent Kashmiris”.



The Chinese foreign ministry released this statment in the wake of the incident.
Several Indian news outlets reported last week that an Indian patrol party was detained and later released by Chinese forces after a scuffle between the two sides in Ladakh.
“The situation became very volatile last Wednesday when a scuffle between Indian jawans and the Chinese resulted in detention of some of our jawans but later they were released” a senior Indian senior bureaucrat claimed.
However,the Indian army“categorically denied” the reports.“There has been no detention of Indian soldiers at the borders. We categorically deny this,” Indian army spokesperson Col Aman Anand Claimed.
