BEIJING (Reuters) – The Chinese military suffered casualties in a border clash with Indian soldiers, the editor-in-chief of China’s Global Times newspaper said on Tuesday.
“Based on what I know, Chinese side also suffered casualties in the Galwan Valley physical clash,” Hu Xijin said in a tweet. He did not give further details.
The Global Times is published by the People’s Daily, the official newspaper of China’s ruling Communist Party.
