The 2016 Uri attack was carried out on 18 September 2016 by four Jaish-e-Mohammed terrorists from Pakistan against an Indian Army brigade headquarters near the town of Uri in the Indian Jammu and Kashmir. 19 Indian soldiers were killed in the attack, and 19–30 others were injured. It was reported by the BBC as having been "the deadliest attack on security forces in Kashmir in two decades".[1]
Jaish-e-Mohammed, a Pakistan-based jihadist organization (designated as a terrorist organization by the India, Australia, the US, and UK among others, and proscribed by Pakistan from 2002 and further actions against its allied organizations in 2019), was involved in the planning and execution of the attack.[2] At the time it was carried out, the Kashmir Valley was experiencing high levels of violent unrest.[3][4]

After a few years of relative calm in Indian-administered Kashmir – largely considered one of the world's most tumultuous geopolitical flashpoints since the India-Pakistan partition – the region has been gripped by unrest for more than two months.
