So the whole point of PLA WTC press release at midnight was to avoid bad PR in the world media 🙄
That is a field where they lead miles ahead of us. We simply are too slow to issue statement. They be issuing statements at 1am/2am Chinese time and we are like : Kal office kholne do karte hain. Whereas global media has already picked up the Chinese narrative. Since last night we are throwing darts in the dark wondering what happened and assuming we went in, fired shots. While in reality we were staying put, THEY came and fired shots and we retaliated.

When will we learn ? :facepalm:

Chushul airstrip is inside India.
area around the strip near gap was salami sliced to a good extent Indian Army tried to activate the air strip in 2010 but UPA govt stopped the military Army tried to go public but again the soldiers gagged by Govt,
Airstrip activation never went again .. I think chinis sliced good area near strip ... non usable for both as Anti air is sitting thats why in case war begins we need to push to Gap and beyond.

Can China construct an airstrip in occupied Aksai Chin?
Yes they can provided there is enough flat land. Even if they construct an air strip how will they supply fuel and weapons? The supply chain would be stretched to it's brink. One reason why Hitler's invasion of USSR failed was because they couldn't supply fuel and ammunition to their front line troops. Fighting a war in Himalayas is no joke. No matter how powerful your military might be. The one advantage India has right now which we can exploit is shorter distances to our borders and shorter supply chains. And the fact that our fighter jets can carry full weapon payload compared to Chinese who are limited by higher altitude means Chinese have to fine tune their tactics and there is no margin of error for them.
