Army deploys over 15,000 troops to counter Chinese aggression in Ladakh

The Indian Army has deployed over 15,000 additional troops in eastern Ladakh to counter Chinese aggression. These troops were part of the army's counter-terrorism units in Jammu and Kashmir.

In an apparent move to check Chinese aggression, the Indian Army has moved its units responsible for counter-terrorism operations in Jammu and Kashmir to eastern Ladakh. "Around 15,000 troops from the J&K-based counter-terrorism formation were moved to the Ladakh sector several months ago to tackle the Chinese aggression," sources privy to the development told India Today TV.
