The official channel claimed the clip showed an Indian army 'several times the size of the Chinese side' launching a violent revenge attack after a Chinese commander had tried to solve the two nations' border disputes through peaceful talks.

4 Chinese dead versus 20 Indian dead. A medieval fight. I don’t believe the figures.

So they ban firearms near the border so that both armies resort to melee weapons. Nice.

China and India fought a war in 1962 as a result of which China captured the Aksai Chin territory.

India should stick to beating its non mask wearing citizens with sticks.

I heard this a few days ago and heard the figures were many more Chinese dead than Indian.

Sticks and stones may break your bones, but nukes will vaporize you.

Would you want to be out front in one of those groups? They have to be leaders who drink the kool aid. Gotta be something in it for them if they don’t get killed.

The Chinese soldiers were seen crying at the front lines. They don't want to fight and die, as their elderly parents are dependent on them (single-child rule). Indian troops, on the other hand, consider it a badge of honor to fight and die as martyrs. Battles won't go well for China.
