According to India, seven of the nine sites that hit rockets on Tuesday night were used by Laskar-I-Taiba and Jasha-I-Mohammed, both Islamic groups that have been described as terrorist organizations by his Security Council UN.

In Laskar-I-Taiba, he attributes New Delhi and the April 22 attack on a group of tourists in Pachalgam, in Indian Kashmir.

India: Who are the Islamist terrorists who are on target

Laskar-I-Tampa (let), or otherwise the « Army of the Pure », is based in the most populous province of Pakistan, Punjab, and has long focused on the war against Indian domination in Kashmir.

According to the UN Security Council, it has carried out « numerous terrorist operations » against military and civilian targets since 1993, including November 2008 attacks in the Indian trade capital, Mumbai, of which 166 people were killed.

Hafiz Said, who founded Let’s around 1990, denies any role in the attack. The UN, however, estimates that Let is also involved in attacks on Mumbai passenger trains in July 2006 as well as an attack on the India Parliament in December 2001.

It is believed that Muridke, just outside the capital of Punjab, Lahore, hosts a huge headquarters of organizations associated with Let, totaling 810 acres.

India says it hit Muridke’s brand, a location about 25 kilometers from the border where the terrorists who attacked Mubai had been trained. The term « mark » means headquarters.

Pakistan, for its part, argues that the team has been outlawed and neutralized. Said was arrested in 2019, found guilty of many categories of terrorism funding and serving a 31 -year prison sentence.

Many observers, however, argue that the organization, often with the mask of a charity, maintains a strong network in the area.

Punjab also has its headquarters by Jais-I-Mohammed (JEM), or the army of Prophet Mohammed, founded by Massoud Azar shortly after his release from India in 1999.

According to the UN Security Council, the agreement provided for an exchange of 155 hostages held on a flight of Indian Airlines to the city of Kandahar in Afghanistan, which had a hijack.

Pakistan outlawed the team in 2002, after Jem was charged with Let’s attack on the 2001 attack on the Indian Parliament.

According to the UN Security Council, the team maintained links with Al Qaeda, the organization founded by Osama bin Laden, and the Taliban.

It is believed that JEM is based in the city of Bachaguchopur, Central Pakistan, also in Punjab. He has been responsible for numerous Kashmir suicide bombings, where India has been facing an armed uprising since the late 1980s, although violence has been reduced in recent years.

India has announced that it was attacked at the Subhan Allah’s mark of Bahaghaghapur, about 100 kilometers from the border, which called JEM’s headquarters.

Although outlawed in Pakistan since 2002, US and Indian authorities say JEM is still open there. As for Azar, he has more or less disappeared, with the exception of some sporadic references to his presence near the city, where he runs a religious institution.
