Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM)

Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM) is a Pakistani-based militant organization founded in 2000, primarily aiming to end Indian control over the Kashmir region. It is designated as a terrorist group by India, the United States, and other countries due to its involvement in violent attacks targeting civilians and military personnel. JeM seeks to promote its political and religious goals through armed insurgency, often carrying out cross-border attacks in India. The group operates clandestinely, with alleged support and safe havens in parts of Pakistan, making it a significant concern for regional security and stability.
