Kashmir attack: Bomb kills 40 soldiers in military convoy
At least 40 Indian paramilitary soldiers have been killed in a bomb attack by militants on their convoy in Indian-administered Kashmir.
Police told the BBC that a car filled with explosives had rammed a bus carrying the troops to Srinagar.
Pakistan-based Islamist group Jaish-e Mohammad said it was behind the attack.
It is the deadliest militant attack on Indian forces in Kashmir since the insurgency against Indian rule began in 1989.

India may have up to 300,000 troops in the restive state of Kashmir which is an amazing number. I read that not long ago.
