In a tragic incident in Jammu and Kashmir, terrorists carried out a deadly attack near Pahalgam, resulting in the loss of twenty-eight lives. The militant group known as The Resistance Front has taken responsibility for the assault. The attack took place amidst the visit of US Vice President JD Vance to India, adding a layer of complexity to the situation. Survivors of the attack have revealed that the attackers demanded victims to recite Islamic verses, with some managing to escape by reciting the kalma. This incident has once again brought Pakistan’s military stance and mineral interests in the region under the spotlight, with growing concerns over their involvement in such activities. The authorities are actively investigating the attack and working towards ensuring the safety and security of the region.
