"government sources reported and satellite photos confirmed that the PLA was constructing concrete bunkers at four places in Galwan, especially Gogra Top and on India’s side of the LAC on the North bank of the Pangong Tso." https://wap.business-standard.com/article-amp/defence/defence-minister-rajnath-singh-speaks-to-us-on-china-s-lac-intrusion-120053000028_1.html?__twitter_impression=true">https://wap.business-standard.com/article-a...
"Even more worrisome, the PLA has moved armoured vehicles and artillery guns to the LAC, close to their intrusion points, enabling fire support to be provided to their troops that had crossed the LAC" https://wap.business-standard.com/article-amp/defence/defence-minister-rajnath-singh-speaks-to-us-on-china-s-lac-intrusion-120053000028_1.html?__twitter_impression=true">https://wap.business-standard.com/article-a...
