"On August 31, the Indian army disrupted the consensus both sides reached through multiple level negotiations and crossed the border illegally at the south bank of the Bangong Lake and Reqin Mountain, launched open provocations, leading to new tensions at the border," Zhang Shuili, spokesman of the PLA's Western Command Center said in a statement.
"The actions of the Indian side seriously violated China's sovereignty and seriously damaged the peace and stability of the border region, going against their promises. The Chinese side has expressed strong opposition against this," the statement says.
