Clash in Galwan Valley
Twenty Indian soldiers and an unspecified number of Chinese troops were killed in a dispute at PP 14 on June 15.
Monday’s move comes after several rounds of negotiations between the two countries.
“We will need to wait to see if this is a genuine and lasting disengagement,” a source told Indian media.
