How India responded to Pakistan’s terrorist activities in the past

3. Uri Surgical Strike

On 18 September 2016, terrorists linked to the Jaish-e-Mohammed attacked an Army base, a brigade HQ, in fact, near the town of Uri in Jammu and Kashmir’s Baramulla district. This killed 19 Indian soldiers, with others injured. In response, India launched the attack, armed not only with deadly weapons but also proof of Pakistan’s involvement in the Uri attack; this included the recovery of grenades and other equipment, with Pak Army markings, from the bodies of the eliminated terrorists.
