High Alert As IB Warns Of Jaish-E-Mohammad Strikes On IAF Base

A high alert has been declared after the Intelligence Bureau has warned about a possible attack on an Indian Air Force in Jammu and Kashmir. The IB warning states that terrorists of the Jaish-e-Mohammad are looking to carry out this attack. It has further been warned that the JeM had trained 8 of its terrorists for this attack.
The information that is based on Intelligence gathering suggests that these 40 jihadis are being training to strike at Jammu and Kashmir as well as other parts of the country. In the past few weeks, the Intelligence has indicated that Pakistan would up the ante and strike at various locations that includes, Maharashtra, Gujarat and some of the southern states. After the IAF strikes, the Balakot facility had been shut down. However this is for the first time that the facility has been activated following the strike. In March 2019, the IAF had hit the terror facility and also managed to destroy four intended targets.
