Indian soldiers reportedly captured footage of a stationary, human-like object near the border, sparking online discussions identifying it as a possible Chinese surveillance or sentry robot. The sighting has intensified speculation about China's use of advanced, unmanned technology in the challenging, high-altitude border region, where extreme cold and low oxygen levels make human patrols arduous. Previous reports have suggested that China is increasingly deploying robotic units to replace soldiers in such inhospitable conditions.
