Amidst the ongoing pandemic, the ongoing tensions between India and China are raising many eyebrows around the world. As the diplomatic talks are going on between India and China, a video of the Indian Army ambush to the Chinese army is getting viral. As per the video, the Chinese Army can be seen intruding in India's Ladakh's Pangong Tso -- one of the standoff points
Painted so far solely by satellite imagery and little or no official word, the month-old India-China military standoff in Ladakh has received a violent visage in the last 24 hours.
After the video of Indian Army dominance went viral, then a still photograph showing the poor condition of the Indian Army went viral on Sunday.
Going by the video, it clearly shows it is from the banks of Ladakh's Pangong Tso -- one of the standoff points. It was released in unison across a group of anonymous handles, depicting a violent clash following a Chinese Army group arriving in a Humvee-type vehicle.
The video also shows a Chinese soldier forcibly restrained, before the Chinese group is chased back, appearing to even abandon their vehicle. The video brought cheer to an anxious social media audience looking for something to hold on to amid reports of a non-stop Chinese build-up.
Army spokesperson Colonel Aman Anand told reporters, "It has been brought to our notice that a video is doing the rounds in social media of an incident at the borders. The contents of the video being circulated are not authenticated. Attempt to link it with the situation on the northern borders is malafide".
"Currently no violence is taking place. Differences are being addressed through interaction between military commanders, guided by established protocols on the management of borders between the two countries. we strongly condemn attempts to sensationalize issues impacting national security. The media is requested not to air visuals that are likely to vitiate the current situation on the borders," Colonel Anand added.
The second image, a still photograph or a video grab, also undated, purports to depict a clash between Indian and Chinese soldiers, where a group of the Indian Army lie injured after being restrained by the Chinese Army. There has been no official statement on the latter image.
Lok Sabha MP Asaduddin Owaisi shared the photo with the caption, "If this is true @PMOIndia @rajnathsingh must avenge this with full force, else he must deny it and tell us what is happening with China. What are you talking to China about? Modi supporters are maintaining complete radio silence ITNA SANATA KYUN HAI."
