| Summary / Abstract (Note) | This article examines the August 1969 clash on the Sino-Soviet border in the area of Lake Zhalanashkol. These events were the culmination of the confrontation between Soviet and Chinese troops that had lasted many months, beginning in March 1969 with a clash on Damanskii (Zhenbao) Island. A chronology of the battle is reconstructed with maps, recollections of veterans of the events, and unique photographs. Erroneous allegations that have received wide dissemination in the Soviet/Russian and Chinese press are refuted. |
