JeM leadership in Kashmir wiped out: Army

The Army has wiped out the Pakistan-based terrorist group Jaish-e-Mohammed's (JeM)leadership in Kashmir, 15 Corps commander Lt Gen KJS Dhillon said. Groups like the Lashkar-e-Taiba and al-Badr have been completely decimated, and Hizb-ul-Mujahideen only has one commander (Riyaz Kaikoo) left, he said.

On Saturday, the Jammu and Kashmir Police said JeM's self-styled Kashmir chief Qari Yasir was among three militants killed in encounter in Tral in South Kashmir.
