The Khalkh River (also spelled as Khalkha River or Halaha River; Template:Langx; Chinese: 哈拉哈 Ha-la-ha; Ha-lo-hsin Ho) is a river in eastern Mongolia and northern China's Inner Mongolia region.[1][2] The river is also referred to with the Mongolian genitive suffix -iin as the Khalkhin Gol, or River of Khalkh.[3]
The river's source is the western slopes of the Greater Khingan mountains of Inner Mongolia. In its lower course, it forms the boundary between China's Inner Mongolia, and the Mongolian Republic[2] until around Lua error: callParserFunction: function "#coordinates" was not found., the river splits into two distributaries. The left branch (the Halh River proper) flows into the Buir Lake at Lua error: callParserFunction: function "#coordinates" was not found.; discharge from that lake at Lua error: callParserFunction: function "#coordinates" was not found.) is known as the Orshuun Gol (Template:Langx, Template:Zh). The right branch, known as the Shariljiin Gol (Template:Langx) flows directly into the Orshuun Gol at Lua error: callParserFunction: function "#coordinates" was not found.. Orhuun connects the Buir Lake with the Hulun Lake.[4] The Chinese–Mongolian border then follows the Shariljiin Gol for about an equal distance.
From May to September 1939, the river was the site of the Battles of Khalkhin Gol, the decisive engagement of the Soviet-Japanese border conflicts. Soviet and Mongolian forces defeated the Japanese Kwantung Army.[5][6][7]
