Tensions between India and Pakistan escalated on Monday as more Indian troops died in an operation against militants blamed for a deadly bombing that killed dozens last week and Islamabad recalled its ambassador to New Delhi.

The new deaths increased pressure on Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi to take action against Pakistan amid nationwide outrage over the deaths of at least 40 troops in a suicide bombing in Kashmir that was claimed by a Pakistan-based militant group.

The flare-up in a long-simmering dispute over Kashmir between the nuclear-armed neighbours threatened to overshadow the visit of the Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman to both countries.

India claims it has evidence the Jaish-e-Mohammad (JeM) group that claimed the bombing had backing from Pakistan. Islamabad denied any involvement in the attack.

Description: Designated as a Foreign Terrorist Organization on December 26, 2001, Jaish-e-Mohammed (JEM) is based in Pakistan. JEM was founded in early 2000 by Masood Azhar, a former senior leader of Harakat ul-Ansar, upon his release from prison in exchange for 155 hijacked Indian Airlines hostages in India. The group's aim is to annex Indian Kashmir and expel Coalition Forces in Afghanistan, and it has openly declared war against the United States. Pakistan outlawed JEM in 2002. By 2003, JEM had splintered into Khuddam-ul-Islam (KUI), headed by Azhar, and Jamaat ul-Furqan (JUF), led by Abdul Jabbar, who was released from Pakistani custody in August 2004. Pakistan banned KUI and JUF in November 2003.
