Indian and Chinese soldiers injured in cross-border fistfight, says Delhi

Troops also threw stones in face-off involving 150 soldiers at remote crossing point near Tibet, says Indian army

Several Indian and Chinese soldiers have been injured in a cross-border clash involving fistfights and stone-throwing at a remote but strategically important mountain pass near Tibet, the Indian army said on Sunday.

There have been long-running border tensions between the nuclear-armed neighbours, with a bitter war fought over the Indian north-eastern state of Arunachal Pradesh in 1962.
