China Builds Heliport Near Arunachal Border, Strengthens Military Presence

China is rapidly constructing a heliport just 20 km from the Indian border near Arunachal Pradesh’s "Fishtail" sector, as revealed by satellite imagery shared by OSINT analyst Damien Symon. According to the Eurasian Times, this heliport is part of China’s broader effort to strengthen military infrastructure along the disputed Line of Actual Control (LAC). Despite recent de-escalation talks, China continues to fortify its positions, enhancing its capability for rapid troop deployment. The ongoing infrastructure build-up underscores Beijing’s commitment to asserting control over contested border areas, particularly near Arunachal Pradesh, which China claims as "South Tibet."
