Indians Launch Counter-Offense On Northeast Frontier
Indian forces backed by artillery and mortars launched a counter-offensive against Chinese forces on the northeast frontier, marking the first major push since the border surge began two weeks ago. The Defense Ministry said counter-attacks occurred at two points in the NEFA following days of withdrawals and heavy casualties, as Gen. P N Thapar declared the enemy held on all fronts. The action came after a U S pledge to rush arms and munitions to bolster India's defenses. Counter-attacks were centered near Jang, east of the Red-captured monas.
