Pulwama Attack
The
Pulwama attack was a terrorist attack that occurred on February 14, 2019, in
the Pulwama district of Jammu and Kashmir, India. A convoy of vehicles carrying
Indian security personnel was attacked by a suicide bomber affiliated with the
Pakistan-based terrorist group Jaish-e-Mohammed, resulting in the deaths of 40
Indian soldiers. The attack led to a military confrontation between India and
Pakistan.
The
Pulwama attack was carried out by a suicide bomber who was a member of the
Pakistan-based terrorist group Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM). The attack was motivated
by the longstanding territorial dispute between India and Pakistan over the
region of Jammu and Kashmir, which has been a point of contention between the
two countries since their independence from British rule in 1947. JeM has been
active in the region and has carried out several attacks in the past with the
aim of destabilizing the Indian government's control over Jammu and Kashmir.
The
Pulwama attack on February 14, 2019, resulted in the deaths of 40 Indian
security personnel who were travelling in a convoy of vehicles when they were
targeted by a suicide bomber. The attack was one of the deadliest in the
ongoing conflict between India and Pakistan over the region of Jammu and
Kashmir.
In
the aftermath of the Pulwama attack, the Prime Minister of India, Narendra
Modi, condemned the attack and vowed to take action against the perpetrators.
The Indian government accused Pakistan of providing support to the terrorist group
Jaish-e-Mohammed, which was responsible for the attack. India launched an
airstrike on a JeM training camp in Balakot, Pakistan on February 26, 2019,
targeting what it claimed were militant infrastructure and causing significant
damage. The airstrike was followed by a military confrontation between India
and Pakistan, which escalated tensions between the two countries.
