Did India bomb the base of an Islamist terror group - or a mosque? | India-Pakistan conflict

Residents living near a mosque bombed by India have told Sky News the building was not used by terrorists.

The Indian government says the Jamia Ummul Qurah mosque in Muridke, near Pakistan's border with India, was used by Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT).

The group is designated as a terror organisation by the UN, and India accuses it of being involved in the deadly attack on Indian tourists in Kashmir last month.

However, residents Sky News spoke to said the building was part of a complex of schools, houses, a hospital and a large seminary, with more than 3,000 students.
