Answer:
On 2 January 2016, six militants attacked the Pathankot Air Force Base in the Indian state of Punjab, with
the intention of destroying the airplanes and helicopters on the tarmac. Before the intruders could reach
the runway or aircraft, base personnel confronted the infiltrators and alerted security personnel of their
presence. After a cook killed one of the militants with the attacker’s own rifle, security personnel cornered
and killed three other intruders. The remaining two attackers hid in an unoccupied barracks while security
forces rushed to protect the airfield, any remaining aircraft, and other high-priority targets. Many hours
later, the two remaining militants ambushed unsuspecting base personnel, leading to an assault on the
two-story barracks by specialized Indian military and security personnel. Due to this second surprise
attack, Indian security forces then conducted a thorough search of the entire base to ensure no other
intruders were still at large. In addition to the six attackers killed, ten Indian military personnel were killed
in action and another 22 people were wounded. Indian governmental officials claimed the Jaish-e-
Mohammed terrorist group conducted the attack.
