China Shares Video of Deadly Border Clash With India
--- Quote ---
> China said four of its troops died last June in a violent
border clash with India, the first detailed account of Chinese
casualties from that time.
>
> The PLA Daily named the four soldiers as Chen Hongjun, Chen
Xiangrong, Xiao Siyuan and Wang Zhuoran.
>
> “These heroic border guards left their youth, blood, and even
life in the Karakoram Plateau and built a towering boundary
monument,” the PLA Daily said, referring to an area spanning
India, China and Pakistan.
>
> The Central Military Commission of China gave the men awards
for their role in defending the country, it added.
>
> India and China moved thousands of soldiers, tanks, artillery
to their 3,488 kilometer (2,167 mile) border after clashes in
the Galwan valley in the disputed border area of Ladakh last
June. India had said it lost 20 soldiers in one of the most
violent encounters on the contested frontier in decades. A
Chinese military spokesperson said at the time there were
casualties on both sides without elaborating.
>
> “The public reporting of heroic deeds by the Chinese media is
the responsibility of the media to objectively report the
facts,” said Senior Colonel Ren Guoqiang, a Defense Ministry
spokesman, in a statement responding to why China chose to make
the details public at this point.
>
> Ren said China exercised a high degree of restraint following
the conflict in June to stabilize relations and deescalate the
situation, but that the Indian side “repeatedly hyped up events
around the casualties, distorted the truth, misled international
public opinion, and slandered Chinese border troops.”
>
> China and India have recently begun pulling back their troops
from Pangong Lake along their Himalayan border, officials on
both sides said, but other areas of conflict between the two
neighbors have yet to be addressed.
>
> The Communist Party-backed Global Times said was “noticeable”
that the PLA Daily report used “foreign military” to refer to
the Indian military, saying that it showed “restraint” on
China’s part.
>
> As troops from both sides move back, “the casualty
announcement could be part of a larger effort to stir patriotic
support and display resolve in the ongoing standoff with India,”
said Bates Gill, a professor of Asia-Pacific security studies at
Macquarie University in Sydney.
>
> Chinese Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Hua Chunying on Friday
reiterated that India bore responsibility for the border issue,
sidestepping a question as to why it had taken eight months for
China to reveal its casualty numbers. She said the release of
the information was to counter disinformation perpetrated by
Indian media and hoped it would help India “draw lessons from it
and better work with China to uphold peace and stability.”

ancient practice are particularly precious. Yoga offers a haven
of calm, it can reduce anxiety and promote mental well-being. It
helps us to develop discipline and patience. It connects us to
our planet, which so badly needs our protection," Guterres said.

India lodges complaint over new Chinese map | DW News
--- Quote ---
> India has lodged a diplomatic objection with China over a new
map which lays claim to Indian territory. The so called 2023
'Standard Map' of China was published earlier in the week. The
new demarcation includes Aksai Chin in the west and the state of
Arunachal Pradesh in the eastern part of the border between
India and China. Aksai Chin is controlled by China but claimed
by India and Arunachal Pradesh is a state of India, that China
claims as part of Tibet.

Torture, rape, killings in Manipur: An Indian state's brutal
conflict
--- Quote ---
>
>
> The segregation of communities in this corner of the world's
fastest-growing major economy feels like a heavily-militarised
border separating countries at war.
>
> A sense of fear is all pervasive in Manipur since shocking
violence between their community and minority Kuki groups broke
out, marked by brutal killings and sexual crimes against women.
More than 200 people have been killed, roughly two-thirds of
them Kukis, a collective name for the Kuki, Zomi, Chin, Hmar and
Mizo tribes who are mostly Christians.
>
> On 4 May, two Kuki-Zomi women were paraded naked by a mob of
Meitei men. The younger woman was allegedly gangraped, her
father and 19-year-old brother beaten to death.
>
> "To see how my daughter was treated, after my husband and son
were killed, it made me want to die. My husband was a church
elder. He was soft spoken and kind. His arms were slashed with
knives. My son was in the 12th grade, a gentle boy who never
fought with anyone. He was brutally beaten with rods," she
sobbed as she spoke.
>
> Despite a police complaint being registered in May, no
investigation into the incident took place until a video of it
surfaced on social media in July. That's when the conflict in
Manipur caught the attention of many in India and around the
world.
>
> Kukis accuse hardline Meitei groups of carrying out
orchestrated attacks against minority families living in Imphal
and surrounding areas.
>
> Hundreds of homes belonging to people from both communities
were set on fire or destroyed, churches and temples burnt. Some
60,000 people across both communities are estimated to be
displaced
>
> the Meiteis and Kukis are completely physically segregated,
forbidden to enter areas the other dominates.
>
> "We are not here with evil intentions. We do not want
violence. We are compelled to take up arms to defend ourselves
against the Meiteis," he said.
>
> "There have been instances where the police have allowed them
to slip through. They can't be fully trusted," he claimed.
>
> Both communities express disappointment in India's national
government.
>
> "I felt disheartened that Prime Minister Modi only spoke after
the video of Kuki women. It made me unhappy. Isn't Manipur a
part of India? Then why are we being neglected?" Tomba asks,
sitting in the Meitei bunker.
>
> if the national government wants, it can resolve the crisis
quickly.
>
> "We haven't heard anything from them [India's government] for
months. We feel they do not care about the lives or suffering of
so many innocent Indian citizens. We are clearly not a
priority," Khakham said
