Tensions between the 2 nuclear-armed countries have risen since the death of an Indian soldier during a deadly clash within the Galwan Valley, BBC Online reports. China has not acknowledged any casualties on their behalf. each side have blamed one another for inciting the conflict.


This area of the border between the 2 countries isn't well marked. The weather during this valley is extremely hostile. Its location is way above water level . the world is in danger of geophysical changes, which makes it harder to line clear boundaries.

India released a photograph of a weapon employed by China within the conflict on Thursday, showing a hand-made weapon nailed to an iron rod. A senior Indian military official told the BBC within the photo that China had used the weapon in clashes within the Galvan Valley.

Defense analyst Ajay Shukla first posted the image on Twitter, describing the utilization of such weapons as "barbaric". The image has spread widely on Twitter in India and social media users are venting their anger on social media. However, neither Chinese nor Indian officials have commented on the matter.

The two countries agreed in 1998 to prevent the utilization of firearms within the conflict. The agreement bans the utilization of ammunition and explosives within the disputed border areas between the 2 countries to stop the conflict from escalating.

According to media reports in India, the 2 countries' troops clashed at an altitude of about 14,000 feet (4,28 m) on a steep mountain, and a few soldiers slipped and fell into the fast-flowing Galvan River, where temperatures were below freezing.

Although there are minor clashes within the disputed border area between India and China in recent times, this is often the primary clash between the 2 countries in 45 years.
