BEIJING: Tensions between China and India have escalated further, with both countries expelling each other’s journalists from their respective territories.
According to the American newspaper Wall Street Journal, China and India have expelled almost all of each other’s journalists from their respective countries due to the escalation of hostilities.
The tension between China and India has spilled over into the media arena, with both ending the other’s media presence in their respective countries.
The report said that the rift between China and India, which was created by the deadly border clash, has now been deepened by the neighbours denying visas to each other’s reporters.

It should be noted that since the border clash in June 2020, relations between the two countries have been continuously strained.
