A video showing a number of vehicles moving methodically on the mountain range is going viral on social media with the claim that that Indian Army troop is being deployed at Line of Actual Control (LAC) in Ladakh amidst the ongoing military standoff between Indian and Chinese forces.

A video is being shared with the caption: “Massive Indian army troops movement in ladakh# # Indian and Chinese army at galwan river Ladakh standoff# This is how Indian Army is preparing itself for any possible escalation.”

TRUTH

With the keywords search on Google, we found the same video dated July 29,2019, uploaded to YouTube on Channel named ‘Kashmir Video’ with the titled ” This is amazing an Indian army convoys traveling from #Ladakh to Srinagar”. 

We could not verify if the video really shows the Indian Army convoy movement in Ladakh but this confirms that the video is at least 10 months old and has nothing to do with the ongoing standoff between the Indian and Chinese Army.
