Nothing new indeed but it have potential to get really ugly really quickly. Please remember that China is not bound to avoid use of extensive force like we are on LoC. We cannot retaliate with extensive heavy artillery because the Indian forces position the artillery in Kashmiri villages on their side, using the Muslim Kashmiri population as a human shield. The Chinese wont care for any such thing at all. For the sake of peace of the region i hope the Indian leadership remember that. They wont hesitate to respond as we usually do since the people on both side of LoC are our Kashmiri brothers.
This conflict thankfully was resolved locally. I hope things are not pushed to a point of no return!
The Indian media was reporting it to be a Mi-17. Going by that these images you shared are not related to this recent incident. Or was the media wrong once again?
