Days before its latest aggression, China redeployed its J-20 fifth-generation fighter aircraft near Ladakh and they are still carrying out extensive flying there, news ANI has reported. "The J-20s have been deployed by the Chinese air force at the Hotan air base and they have been flying close to the Indian territory near Ladakh and adjoining areas. The deployment of strategic bomber aircraft is also still on by the Chinese," report said quoting government sources. The move by the Chinese Air Force to redeploy their latest and most capable aircraft at air bases near Ladakh comes soon after India started rapidly operationalising the Rafale fighter jets, five of which have joined the Air Force.
