MOSCOW (Sputnik) - Three Indian soldiers have been killed and two more injured as a result of a terrorist attack in Jammu and Kashmir's Rajouri district, media reported on Thursday.
According to NDTV, an Indian broadcaster, two terrorists tried to infiltrate an army camp. Both attackers were killed in the incident.
It remains unknown which group was behind the attack.
In 2019, the Indian government announced its decision to strip the Muslim-majority Jammu and Kashmir region of its statehood and special status and split it into two union territories — Jammu and Kashmir, and Ladakh.
The decision provoked a harsh backlash from neighboring Pakistan, which said that New Delhi was mistreating the region's Muslim population, which was fighting for its rights. India, in turn, has accused Islamabad of backing separatists, who allegedly undermine the region's security.
India controls the southern part of the Kashmir region, while Pakistan and China occupy its northwestern and northeastern parts, respectively.
