Pakistan maintains that the insurgency in the disputed region is being fought by Muslim separatists from India's side of Kashmir. Following the Pulwama attack, both countries carried out aerial bombing missions on each other's soil and their warplanes also fought a brief dogfight over Kashmir's skies. Tensions cooled when global powers intervened to prevent a full-scale conflict between the nuclear armed neighbours and Pakistan handed back a captured Indian pilot. And after briefing foreign diplomats in Islamabad, Pakistan's foreign ministry issued a statement asserting that most of India's dossier was based on "social media content". It said the Indian dossier listed 90 individuals suspected of belonging to banned organizations with militant links and 22 locations of alleged militant training camps.
