Chinese troops reportedly laying network of cables south of Pangong Lake in Ladakh

Chinese troops are reportedly laying a network of optical fibre cables south of Pangong Lake in Ladakh, two Indian officials have said. According to the details, the Chinese troops were digging in for the long haul despite high-level talks aimed at resolving a standoff there.  A statement by a senior government official has suggested such cables would provide forward troops with secure lines of communication to bases in the rear and have recently been spotted to the south of Pangong Tso lake in Ladakh.
