India says Pakistan-based Jaish-e-Mohammed carried out Kashmir attack

NEW DELHI (Reuters) - India said a Pakistan based militant group, Jaish-e Mohammed carried out Thursday's deadly attack on an Indian police convoy in disputed Kashmir, and demanded that its neighbor act against militant groups operating from its soil. A car laden with explosives slammed into the convoy, killing at least 44 soldiers in the deadliest attack on security forces in decades in the region, raising tensions with Pakistan which claims the territory. "We demand that Pakistan stop supporting terrorists and terror groups operating from their territory and dismantle the infrastructure operated by terrorist outfits to launch attacks in other countries," India's foreign ministry said in a statement.
