India Agrees to Some Chinese Demands in Himalayas Standoff

India agreed to a Chinese demand to demolish bunkers near their de facto border in the Himalayas, Indian military officials said.

“The bunkers in Chumar were dismantled after we acceded to Chinese demands,” the army officer told Reuters on Tuesday.

Indian and Chinese soldiers faced off 100 meters apart on a plateau near the Karakoram mountain range for three weeks until a deal was reached on Sunday for both sides to withdraw.
