Months after India and China ended a tense border standoff over China's attempt to build a road in Bhutanese territory - Doklam, Chinese soldiers with road-building machines reportedly crossed up to 200 metres in Indian territory in Arunachal Pradesh in late December.
 
According to a Hindustan Times, Chinese soldiers had almost reached a border village in the Upper Siang district of the state before the Indian army stopped them and seized their road building machines including two excavators.
