Indian Government Launches Massive Security Operation After Kashmir Tragedy

At least Twenty-six people, including 25 Indian nationals and one Nepalese, were killed and 17 injured when suspected militants opened fire on tourists in the Pahalgam area of Jammu and Kashmir, marking the deadliest civilian attack in India since the 2008 Mumbai attacks. The assault, claimed by a little-known group called “Kashmir Resistance,” has disrupted the recent calm in the region and raised security concerns amid claims the victims were linked to Indian security agencies as a large-scale security operation is underway, with authorities questioning suspected sympathizers and combing the area.
