The Indian Army late Tuesday night raised the death toll in a clash with Chinese troops on a disputed Himalayan border from three to 20 Indian soldiers.
The army also said in a statement that the two sides “have disengaged” from the disputed Galwan area where they clashed overnight on Monday.
The army originally reported that three Indian soldiers had died, but later said 17 additional soldiers succumbed to injuries they suffered in the sub-zero temperatures of the high-altitude terrain.
China has accused Indian forces of carrying out “provocative attacks” on its troops and has not said if any of its soldiers have died.
Thousands of soldiers on both sides have been facing off for over a month.
The clash — during which neither side fired any shots, according to Indian officials — is the first deadly confrontation between the two Asian giants since 1975.

They moved Reykjavik to the India/China border? Nobody told me.
20 dead? Did they use harsh language?
This is the new emboldened China.
Better equipped and emboldened by our elites selling out our working middle class.
They are extremely nationalistic and they are ready to fight.
Meanwhile in America, college football coaches are forced to apologize for wearing conservative news T shirts.

Well China did one heck of a job creating this virus
No, this is the kind of thing that drives more of them here. Our elites would love to move many more jobs to India Red China, but the infrastructure isn’t there (yet) in terms of 24/7/365 electricity in parts - and situations like this ensure that American workers will have to get used to Indians - and Red Chinese - coming here instead.
That nearly all empty in to the Ganges?
Four US Presidents starting with HW have created this Frankenstein known as China.
