The Chinese Army has reportedly moved back from the patrolling point 14, sources have said. The patrolling point 14 had emerged as a hotspot after Chinese troops had moved ahead of the Line of Actual Control (LAC) in the Galwan region. According to the sources, the Chinese Army has moved back nearly 2 kms from the Galwan Valley.

A buffer zone has been created between the Indian and Chinese troops, they said, adding a mutual withdrawn of the Indian and Chinese troops have taken place, but is most likely limited to Galwan.

The extent of the mutual pull-back has not been specified, the sources have said.

Following the June 15 incident, when 20 Indian soldiers were killed during the Galwan Valley clash, the Chinese People�s Liberation Army (PLA) had moved well within India�s perception of the LAC.

India had matched presence with bunkers and temporary structures and the two armies were in �eyeball to eyeball� positions.
