WATCH: China's PLA will destroy IAF base before Indian jets can take off, claims Chinese channel

New Delhi: An undated video by a Chinese news channel has claimed that China will be able to rain down missiles and rockets on the Hashimara air base in northern West Bengal even before Indian Air Force (IAF) fighter planes such as Rafale and Sukhoi can take off.

The Hasimara air base sits in a strategically important location. It is just 90 kilometers from the Doklam plateau in Bhutan, Where the Indian Army and the People’s Liberation Army (PLA) of China engaged in an eyeball-to-eyeball confrontation in 2017.

The video claims that over the past month, China has deployed various weapons and equipment in Tibet and the PLA has held large-scale, long-range rocket and missile firing exercises.
