China seizes more territory from Nepal with troops constructing buildings over the border

China has annexed more than 150 hectares of Nepal, politicians from the tiny Himalayan nation have told the Daily Telegraph, months after deadly border clashes between Chinese and Indian troops.

China allegedly began seizing Nepalese land in five frontier districts in May, sending members of its People’s Liberation Army (PLA) across undefended areas of the border.

In the north-western district of Humla, PLA troops crossed the border into the Limi Valley and Hilsa, moving stone pillars which had previously demarcated the boundary further into Nepalese territory before constructing alleged military bases. The Daily Telegraph has seen images of the bases.

PLA soldiers also allegedly moved border pillars further into Nepalese territory in the district of Gorkha.
