Taking soldiers in ambulance

According to the news received by the sources, China has suffered a major loss in the violent clash between the soldiers of the two countries near the Galvan Valley on the night of 15-16 June. The basis of the estimate of this loss is that China is carrying wounded and dead soldiers through stretchers, ambulances on the border. Apart from this, the movement of Chinese helicopter has increased near the Galvan River, through which soldiers are being transported.

Apart from this, the soldiers who were involved in this clash with China have also confirmed this. However, the exact figure of how much damage has been done to China has not yet been revealed, although the number is said to be close to 40.

China refuses to accept casualties

Earlier on Tuesday, it was accepted by the Global Times that China had suffered a huge loss. But later he refused to give the number, besides the Chinese Foreign Ministry had not given any number.

On the other hand, in its official statement from the Indian Army, it was informed that 20 soldiers were killed in the encounter. Initially, information about the martyrdom of three was revealed, after which the other 17 were added. The names of all these 20 martyrs will be released by the army on Wednesday.

Significantly, there was tension between India and China in Ladakh since the month of May. Under the agreement, China had to retreat from the present place, when the soldiers of the Indian Army arrived there to inform them. So the Chinese army attacked Indian soldiers by deception. During this time a total of 20 soldiers including the commanding officer of India were martyred.
