On February 14, 2019, India witnessed one of its darkest days when a suicide bomber attacked a convoy of Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) personnel in Pulwama district of Jammu and Kashmir. The attack claimed the lives of 40 brave CRPF personnel, making it one of the deadliest terrorist attacks on Indian security forces.
A suicide bomber rammed an explosive-laden vehicle into a bus carrying CRPF personnel on the Jammu-Srinagar highway. The Pakistan-based terrorist organization Jaish-e-Mohammed claimed responsibility for the attack. This tragic incident led to heightened tensions between India and Pakistan, eventually resulting in the Balakot airstrikes by the Indian Air Force on terrorist camps in Pakistan.
