"My analysis disproves some of the more extreme claims that have been made...such as that thousands of Chinese soldiers have crossed the LAC and encamped in Indian-controlled territory. The satellite pictures also highlight the obvious threats to a peaceful status quo" https://twitter.com/Cold_Peace_/status/1273613471700135937

"The analysis includes evidence that strongly suggests Peoples’ Liberation Army forces have been regularly crossing into Indian territory temporarily on routine patrol routes."

"Former Indian Army officers have been providing info to journalists and the media have been...painting a picture of a substantial conflict often involving claims of the incursion of 10K PLA troops...The reality is less dramatic, but does represent a significant change to the SQ"

"Until May, the PLA didn’t have positions within the [Galwan] valley, despite several kilometres being on the China-controlled side of the LAC. However, recently established Indian positions closer to the LAC, and the construction of a road to supply these positions..."

"...appears to have prompted the PLA to establish a number of significant positions and move up to 1,000 soldiers into the valley. China is reportedly now laying claim to all of Galwan River Valley."

"From ridgeline positions, PLA forces would be able to monitor all traffic on the recently completed [DSDBO] road...Additional Indian military bases have been constructed along this road recently."

Pangong Tso "is the site of the most significant divergence between New Delhi and Beijing on the precise location of the border, differing by up to 30 kilometres."

"In the past month, Chinese forces have become an overwhelming majority in the disputed areas. Significant positions have been constructed between fingers 4-5, including around 500 structures, fortified trenches and a new boatshed over 20 kms further forward than previously."

"More structures appear to be under construction. The scale and provocative nature of these new Chinese outposts is hard to overstate: 53 different forward positions have been built, including 19 that sit exactly on the ridgeline separating Indian and Chinese patrols."
