- The stand-off began with a scuffle in the Pangong Tso area on the intervening night of May 5/6 after Chinese troops came in large numbers, resulting in serious injuries on both sides. Around 76 Indian personnel were injured, including the Commanding Officer of the unit who suffered a head injury and had to be airlifted to Delhi. There was a second scuffle on May 9 at Naku La in North Sikkim.
In a statement on May 14, Army Chief Gen Manoj Naravane said these two incidents were a result of “aggressive behaviour on both sides” and were resolved at the local level.
