BEIJING - China reinforced its troops near the Indian border with mountain climbers and martial arts fighters shortly before a deadly clash this month, state media reported.

Chinese and Indian troops clashed later that day in the most violent confrontation between the two powers in decades, in the Ladakh region 1,300km away. India said on Thursday that it had reinforced troops in the contested Himalayan border region, saying it was matching a similar build-up by China. India claims Chinese troops ambushed Indian soldiers and forced them down a ridge where they had gone to remove a Chinese"encroachment".
