BBC: Kashmir clash: 20 Indian troops killed in fighting with Chinese forces
At least 20 Indian soldiers were killed in a clash with Chinese forces in Ladakh in the disputed Kashmir region, Indian officials say.
The incident follows rising tensions, and is the first deadly clash in the border area in at least 45 years.
The Indian army initially said three of its soldiers had been killed, adding that both sides suffered casualties.
But later on Tuesday, officials a number of critically injured soldiers had died of their wounds.
India's external affairs ministry accused China of breaking an agreement struck the previous week to respect the Line of Actual Control (LAC) in the Galwan Valley.
According to the Indian statement, "a violent face-off happened as a result of an attempt by the Chinese side to unilaterally change the status quo there".

It is important to note that the Indians have better sartorial fashion. It is a force multiplier. Think about it.
China does do a great job of making sure they have no friends.
Gotta admire them for their tenacity.
Let’s see what the Chinese have to say. Can’t wait.
On CNN: mostly peaceful
Will there ever be consequences for the staff of CNN? The CEO? Any investigations? Just asking.
India has had several skirmishes with Pakistan over the years over Kashmir. It/s been decades since someone actually returned fire in anger at China. I hope their nose was well bloodied.
It'll be interesting to see what China decides to do.
