Deadliest Terror Attack in Kashmir Since 2019 :
The returning normalcy in Kashmir was torn apart violently today with a devastating terrorist attack at Baisaran Valley in Pahalgam. The attack killed 26 people, mostly tourists, and injuring several others. The Resistance Front, a Lashkar-e-Taiba offshoot, claimed responsibility for the deadliest attack since the 2019 Pulwama bombing. Atleast one Italian and ine Israeli tourist also perished. Security forces have launched a massive anti-terror operation, with para commandos deployed to neutralize the attackers. Political leaders, including President Droupadi Murmu and Chief Minister Omar Abdullah, condemned the cowardly act. The attack, targeting civilians, has sparked nationwide outrage, with candle marches in Kashmir denouncing the violence.
Lashkar E Taiba is a Pakistan based terror organisation that has enjoyed state support in the country. We condemn this senseless act of violence.
