Depsang sector is the key to DBO, DBO road, DBO airfield and the Siachin Glacier. The fall of DBO will put the entire Eastern Ladakh and Siachin Glacier at risk for the Indian. Adding to the prospects of Pakistani and Chinese armies joining in Ladakh. Below is an article written by Shiv Aroor of India Today.
Chinese mobilisation in parts of eastern Ladakh indicates that the People's Liberation Army (PLA) could open a fresh front in Daulat Beg Oldie (DBO) and Depsang Sectors.
Sources tell India Today that data has confirmed Chinese mobilisation east of DBO. Camps and vehicles were spotted near the Chinese base in June. The Chinese base in question was erected prior to 2016 but new camps and vehicle tracks in the region were seen only this month in satellite images and the same was confirmed by tracking movement on the ground.
India had mobilized in Depsang in late-May, expecting Chinese movement in this sector. Depsang was the area where the PLA had intruded in 2013.
On Wednesday, a border meeting was held between India and China. The meeting was attended by Members of the Working Mechanism for Consultation and Coordination on India-China border affairs (WMCC). Since the military build-up on both sides of the Line of Actual Control (LAC) in eastern Ladakh in May of this year, several military and diplomatic level talks have been held between the two countries.
