Chinese helicopters were spotted flying close to the undemarcated border between India and China in Eastern Ladakh, after around 250 soldiers of both sides were engaged in a fierce face-off near Pangong Lake in the area last week, official sources said.
The situation in the area remained tense after the violent clashes between the troops on Tuesday evening, they said. The next day, both sides agreed to end the face-off at a meeting of local commanders.
The Chinese military helicopters were seen flying close to the Line of Actual Control on at least a couple of occasions following the clashes after which a fleet of Su-30 fighters of the Indian Air Force too carried out sorties in the area, the sources said.
