A suicide bomber targeted a convoy of 78 vehicles carrying over 2,500 soldiers on the Jammu Srinagar National Highway. More than 35 army personnel were injured in the attack that shook the nation’s core.
Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM) had claimed responsibility for the attack.
Less than a fortnight on February 26, Indian Air Force jets bombed JeM’s camp in Balakot located in Pakistan’s Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.
