Stumbled Upon: Fires in India-China Border, but in Sikkim Border

Stumbled Upon: Fires in India-China Border, but in Sikkim

Border 

 

 I was checking the lack of snowfall in Himalayas and its effects on mountain glaciers this winter. But this morning, strange little dots appeared on a valley north of Kanchenjangha peaks. These red dots represent fires, but to best of our knowledge in satellite imagery, it is completely barren and no vegetation, let alone trees grow there.

Strangest of Strange fact is, nobody lives in the Valley and it has never given any name in any maps.

It is some 15 km inside Indian border,  so it not that Chinese and Indian troops are exchanging fire.

With every pass of satellites,  the number of red dots grew.

What could be these fires? Live-fire exercises? Did China cross Indian border again? Did a meteor crash? Or did the aliens land from space?

One thing is certain, these fires were not started naturally. The question is, Who started the fire? civilians are not even allowed in that sector.

I'm sure both India and China would sing the Billy Joel song, "We didn't start the fire".
