Condemning the militant attack on an army camp in North Kashmir's Uri that killed 17 soldiers, UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon hoped the perpetrators are brought to justice and all involved would work for the re-establishment of stability and prevent further loss of life. "The UN is following the developments closely and shares the concerns of people living in the region for peace," a statement issued by Ban's spokesperson read. He expressed his "deepest sympathy and condolences" to the families of the martyred soldiers and India and wished a speedy recovery to those injured in the attack.
