India And China Face Off Again Briefly

ISLAMABAD: The Chinese People’s Liberation Army (PLA) has repulsed the Indian army attack in Eastern Ladakh which was termed by the Indians as “pre-emptive action”.

A Chinese military spokesperson, Colonel Zhang Shuili, claimed in a statement that it was India that had violated China’s sovereignty. "The Chinese military is taking necessary countermeasures and will pay close attention to developments and resolutely safeguard China's territorial sovereignty and peace and stability in border areas," said the spokesperson.

The delayed reports suggested that on the night between Saturday and Sunday Indian Army tried to transgress the Line of Actual Control (LAC) in eastern Ladakh along the southern bank of the Pangong Tso Lake. It has further exacerbated the military standoff, continuing since early May. Details of the latest fight are still coming in.

Indian Defence Ministry statement on Sunday indicated that there had been another confrontation between the two armies, further escalating their standoff levels. It has raised the specter of India facing a perpetually hot second front. Indian defence sources indicated that presently there are around three additional Indian army divisions of around60,000-70,000 personnel to supplement some 20,000 troops from the Leh-based 3 division tasked with minding the LAC in eastern Ladakh against the PLA.

Global coronavirus cases cross 40 million: Reuters tally

Worldwide coronavirus cases crossed 40 million on Monday, according to a Reuters tally, as the onset of winter in the northern hemisphere fuelled a resurgence in the spread of the disease. The Reuters tally is based on official reporting by individual countries. Experts believe the true numbers of both cases and deaths are likely much higher, given deficiencies in testing and potential under-reporting by some countries. The Reuters data shows the pace of the pandemic continues to pick up.
