A Chinese military aircraft reportedly entered Indian airspace over Sikkim on November 12 and remained in the area for around 20–25 minutes despite repeated warnings from the Indian Air Force (IAF). According to a report by Outlook India, the aircraft was detected at around 8 am, flying at an altitude of approximately 25,000 feet. The IAF reportedly issued several radio warnings asking it to return to Chinese territory, but the aircraft continued flying over the area. The incident is significant because Sikkim overlooks the strategically important Siliguri Corridor. However, Indian defence authorities have not officially confirmed the reported intrusion.
