\"China<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Chinese authorities have released no fewer than 10 Indian soldiers including two senior officers, who were arrested following a violent border clash in the Himalayas which left at least 20 Indian soldiers dead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reports say the soldiers were released after several rounds of talks between the two sides in a bid to ease tensions after the battle on Monday in the high Himalayan region where their armies engaged in a deadly clash.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Indian Express, quoting officials it did not name, said all 10 soldiers were released by China<\/a> around 5pm (11:30 GMT) on Thursday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The released soldiers were medically examined and provided a preliminary debriefing, reports said. \u201cThey were returned unharmed,\u201d said The Hindu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In other news, China has started the prosecution of two Canadians who were detained in December 2018 on spying charges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The pair identified as former diplomat Michael Kovrig and businessman Michael Spavor were arrested after Huawei boss Meng Wanzhou was nabbed in Vancouver following a US extradition request.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

State media reported<\/a> on Friday that formal proceedings against Kovrig and Spavor had begun in Beijing and Dandong, a city on the border with North Korea.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
