Dec. 13 (UPI) -- India's Defense Minister Rajnath Singh on Tuesday accused China of initiating a conflict on the disputed border between the two countries in the Himalayan Mountain region.
Singh told Indian officials that Chinese People's Liberation Army troops of crossed the "Line of Actual Control," the de facto border between China and India in the region on Friday, in the most serious run-in since 2020.
"The Chinese attempt was contested by our troops in a firm and resolute manner," Singh told Indian officials. "The ensuing face-off led to a physical scuffle in which the Indian army bravely prevented the PLA from transgressing into our territory and compelled them to return to their posts."
Singh said 20 Indian soldiers were injured in the exchange but no deaths were reported.

Is that Dodge in Hell? That book made me rethink him as an author because I loved him when I was younger and I realized he is such a chud. I couldn't get very far into it it was so bad.
No, that was quite a few years ago. The latest is Termination Shock which was basically written for redditors.
Ugh. Would you mind giving me a short summary? I'm afraid of looking it up. Guessing it has to do with the Indo-China border conflict sparking nuclear war and then some epic old gun fetishist just has to be creepy towards a much younger woman whose race is mentioned slightly too frequently?

Plot A is around former special forces type guy and the queen of denmark? interacting with an "innovative" oil man type who has all the answers and decides he's gonna solve climate change by shooting sulfur into the air to cool things back down. There's some cringy sex dialogue and activity around the queen and the special forces guy.
Plot B is around an Indian-Canadian kid who ends up making his way to the line of actual control because China Bad and becomes an internet sensation because the line of actual control is "performance warfare" for views and sponsorship and whatnot.
Long story short plot b meets plot a when Indian kid gets robocopped into attacking oil guys sulfur cannon, but the day is saved by special forces guy and the power of love or some shit.
