The entire highway lies within an area claimed by both India and Pakistan and this can pose hazards to travel . For example , the highway was closed for days following the 2019 Pulwama attack , in which a car bomb , apparently sent from Pakistan by the terrorist group Jaish-e-Mohammad , attacked a military convoy and killed 46 Indian soldiers
