Pakistan’s military accuses neighboring India of sponsoring militants in the restive southwestern Balochistan province, which saw an unprecedented attack this week by armed separatists.

Following the hijacking of the Jaffar Express by the Balochistan Liberation Army, Pakistan’s foreign ministry spokesperson had accused India of ‘sponsoring terrorism’.

India on Friday dismissed Pakistan's terrorism allegations, stating the world knows the true "epicentre of global terrorism". This came after Islamabad accused India of backing terror but did not directly link it to the Balochistan train attack that killed 21.
