突发！印军一架无人飞行器侵入中国领空之后坠毁！

Zhang Shuili, deputy director of the western theatre combat bureau, said the incident took place in "recent days". He did not give an exact location.

西部战区作战局副局长张水利指出，此事发生在“近几日”。他未给出一个确切的位置。

He was quoted in Xinhua news agency as saying that India had "violated China’s territorial sovereignty".

新华通讯社援引他的话语报道，印度已经“侵犯中国的领土主权”。

The Indian army said the drone had been deployed on a training mission and developed a technical problem.

印军表示，此前无人飞行器执行了一次训练使命，并且出现了一个技术问题。

Indian army spokesperson Colonel Aman Anand told reporters that they had lost control of the drone which then crossed into Chinese airspace. They alerted their Chinese counterparts soon after, he added.

印军发言人阿曼·阿南德上校向各路记者说道，他们对这架无人飞行器失去了控制，随后，它越境到了中国的领空。他补充，他们随即向中国军队发出了警报。

The two countries saw relations worsen this summer when they became locked in a dispute over a Himalayan plateau.

In remarks carried widely by state media outlets, Mr Zhang said Chinese border forces had conducted "verifications" of the alleged drone.

国家媒体广泛报道，张水利表示，中国的边境军队已经对这一无人飞行器进行了“查证”。

He added that China expresses "our strong dissatisfaction and opposition regarding this matter" and that it would "steadfastly protect the country’s rights and safety".
