Unconfirmed footage reportedly shows a complex improvised explosive device (IED) operation carried out by Pakistani forces against Indian troops in the contested Kashmir region.

The first device targets a solo soldier walking to his post. The soldier takes a significant hit from the blast and is launched downhill. Soon after, an Indian aid-and-litter team arrive to treat and evacuate the wounded soldier. As they attempt to extract him on the stretcher, the pro Pakistani forces detonate a second device, inflicting more casualties.

The conflict in the Kashmir region is an ongoing territorial dispute between India, Pakistan, and China. Both India and Pakistan claim ownership over state of Jammu and Kashmir. While the anti Indian operations are usually carried out by local "separatists," those groups are trained, funded and equipped by Pakistan's Inter Services Intelligence (ISI), making them a plausibly deniable proxy force of the Pakistani government.
