Welcome to today's The India China Newsletter. India on Monday morning handed back to China a People’s Liberation Army (PLA) soldier who was apprehended early on Friday. The incident happened at the south bank of Pangong Lake, which has been the focus of tensions since late August. Here's where India had, in response to China's transgressions north of the lake and elsewhere along the Line of Actual Control (LAC), occupied strategic heights in a countermove that now sees India dominate China's positions there. This is also where several instances of firing of warning shots have been reported, the first such cases since 1975.
