India dismisses Chinese professor’s claim of Beijing using ‘microwave weapons’ against Indian forces
New Delhi: India has rejected China's claims that Beijing is using microwave weapons to defeat Indian forces in an alleged border clash in the disputed Ladakh region.
China is seeding a “fake news” story about using microwave weapons to defeat Indian forces in an alleged border clash, according to Indian officials, reports Washington Examiner.
“It’s pure and poor psyops from China,” an Indian official told the Washington Examiner.
It’s a dismissive response to a Beijing-based professor's assertion that Chinese forces “turned the mountain tops into a microwave oven” in a recent clash with India that allowed Beijing to recapture two key hilltops in a disputed border region.
The Indian Army also tweeted and said it is in control of the high grounds.
