I think Nitin Gokhale is withholding several critical information. I too saw his latest video just now, He seems to be hold backing critical information on behalf of IA. we might captured some peaks in chinese area, else china wont make these kind of noise
I agree. I think Gokhale has far more information than he broadcasts most likely at the request of GOI e.g at this stage the last think GOI would want is to be painted as the aggressor that has occupied territory. On the other hand "defensive operations within Indian territory" are kosher!!

Thread has gone crazy agian, please use China meme thread for pocking fun.


So far something happened on Black top.
Whether there was hand to hand Combat or Firefight is yet unknown.
The LAC has shifted in South Pangong, by how much is the questions.
Commander level meeting fail so there is no option of changing status quo
If you go with the two GoI communication so far, no report of any direct confrontation or shots being fired so far.

1. Near impossible for PLA conscripts to dislodge battle hardened Indian troops from the dominating features.
2. North bank of Pangong Tso too has now become vulnerable to accurate arty fire by observation from these features. Just what the arty OPs needed! PLA positions at the Fingers are now as naked as Jaybirds.
A noob question. In this day of drones and ariel surveillance, is not having the control of a height such a problem? If so needed, any height can be pounded either by artillery OR air. India did this during Kargil.

Not sure that would be very effective and given the numbers we can deploy on a hill./... Jammers could be effective.... But Do we Have any ???
This war will be more metal based on ground than air, air warfare will be more of preventing each other total dominance. India will hit their air bases or try doing that as early as they can.

Arty officer embedded with the infantry needs to have line of sight on the target, to give the exact grid coordinates and corrections in real-time.

The Chinese had built a road from Rudok in Tibet right up to the Spanggur Gap. The road linked the gap with China’s National Highway 219 (that runs through occupied Ladakh and connects Xinjiang to Lhatse in Tibet) and was tankable. If we have captured Spanggur Gap, (I'm not sure we have so far, but according to inside info, we have) it would choke Chinese armoured movements in the area.

If this is correct then time to push more forces to capitalise it, so that further movement of Chinkees can be stopped hear

In a significant development, Indian security forces today foiled an attempt by the Chinese Army to transgress into the Indian side of the Line of Actual Control in the general area of Chumar: Sources


Around 7 to 8 heavy vehicles of the Chinese army set off towards the Indian side of the Line of Actual Control from their Chepuzi camp. In reaction, the Indian security forces also made precautionary deployments to prevent any intrusion: Sources





Seeing the vehicles from the Indian side along with troops, the Chinese vehicle convoy returned back towards their bases. Indian security forces are on high alert all along the LAC to prevent any incursion by the Chinese in any sector: Sources



#BREAKING: Indian security forces today yet again foiled an attempt by Chinese PLA to transgress into Indian side of the Line of Actual Control in Chumar.
8 heavy Chinese vehicles were set off towards Indian side. India did counter deployment and forced Chinese vehicles to leave.

escalation (or embarrassment??)

lmao he has better sources but gets basic info wrong..
have u ever met a service good rank holder MI officer or even worst MOD jun baboos?
most of them needs foreplay if they know smthin and many times they just repeat what u want to listen.
Gokhale sources are still better u can check his track record he doesnt goes into defense maal selling PR he reports on events and many times due to above irritations from these sources he can be wrong just like a normal being.
But still he is well liked and considered a patriot in these circles.
