A Chinese defense ministry spokesman Ren Guoqiang told the media on Friday that while China had remained restrained to calm the situation, India had repeatedly “hyped about the casualties, misled international opinion and slandered Chinese border troops.

A report by PLA Daily, the official newspaper of the Chinese military, said that Indian troops had been trying to unilaterally change the status quo at the border since April 2020 by building bridges and roads and crossing over the line of control. Chinese troops reinforced Qi and forced Indian troops to retreat, who “held their heads as they escape, left behind many wounded soldiers behind the line, and paid a heavy price,” said the PLA Daily.Chinese soldiers Chen Hongjun, Chen Xiangrong, Xiao Siyuan died in combat. Another soldier Wang Zhuoran drowned while crossing a river. The men were given posthumous awards.
