A Chinese journalist has posted a video online that he suggested showed China’s
troops escorting members of the Indian armed forces, following disputed reports
that India detained Chinese soldiers during the border stand-off.

A journalist from nationalistic tabloid Global Times posted the video on Twitter
on Thursday with the hashtags “ChinaIndiaStandOff” and “IndiaChinaBorder”.

It appeared to show Chinese troops escorting what the tweet implied were
captured Indian soldiers, who were blindfolded. The tweet, by journalist Yang
Sheng, did not state when the video was filmed, and read: “PLA is the most
civilised military force in treating prisoners of its enemies. Those Indian
soldiers and officers in the video will agree with me.”
