Azhar  

Earlier, the Pakistan establishment had banned a dozen organisations associated with newly-designated global terrorist Azhar. Azhar’s JeM had masterminded the dastardly Pulawama terror attack in February this year that claimed the lives of over 40 CRPF jawans

Several of the banned organisations also have ties to Jamat-ud-Dawah headed by Lashkar-e-Taiba chief and terror plotter Hafiz Saeed.

A new terror outfit is now being formed in Pakistan after it got a major setback to act against terrorists operating from its soil as United Nations Security Council declared JeM chief Masood Azhar as a global terrorist.
 

You’ve heard of dynastic politics. But Jaish-e-Mohammed is run as a completely dynastic terror corporation with close relatives in every strata of hierarchy, controlling finance to weapons to jihadi education

Indian agencies have been given the task to trace and update the location of terrorist Masood Azhar. Sources have confirmed that he was also planning to visit the Indo-Pakistan border regarding an important task, but his trip was cancelled after he was designated a global terrorist

The Sanctions Committee sanctioned Masood Azhar, slapping an arms embargo, asset freeze and travel ban on him, 10 years after India first moved to have him blacklisted at the UN

The Jaish-e-Mohammed chief was declared a global terrorist by the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) on Wednesday. This move is seen as a massive diplomatic victory for India which has been pushing for Azhar to be declared a global terrorist by the UN

It was in 2009 that India had first moved to list Azhar as a UN-listed terrorist. It was a lone proposer back then. Gradually other countries started appreciating India's position on this issue.

A decision on the Pakistan-based Masood Azhar was expected on Wednesday as the UN's sanctions committee was slated to hold a crucial meeting, amid indications that China could lift its hold on the proposal to blacklist him
 

After China put a technical hold on Azhar listing for the fourth time, the three key members of P-5 of the UNSC asked Beijing to come up with specific reasons for the hold in two weeks.
 

US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo was apparently referring to China blocking a proposal to designate Pakistan-based Jaish-e-Mohammed's chief Masood Azhar a 'global terrorist' at the UN Security Council (UNSC) earlier this month

A senior member of the Trump administration has said that China has a responsibility to not shield Pakistan. After realising that the Pulwama attack was not the first time JeM has attacked India, the Trump administration official said that it was time for Pakistan to bear down on the terrorist group.
 

Germany has floated a proposal to ban Jaish-e-Mohammed chief Masood Azhar by the European Union, but no resolution on the issue has been moved yet, diplomatic sources said

According to the intelligence agency, terrorists from Taliban Haqqani network and JeM were receiving training at the Balakot's terror camps, which was destroyed in the Indian airstrike on February 26
