The Resistance Front (TRF), believed to be a proxy of Lashkar-e-Taiba, has backtracked on its initial claim of responsibility for the recent terror attack in Pahalgam, citing a cyber intrusion as the reason for the false claim. This development comes in the wake of global acknowledgment of India’s assertion that the attack was orchestrated by LeT with support from Pakistan. However, security officials have quickly dismissed TRF’s retraction as a feeble attempt by Pakistan’s Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) to absolve itself of any involvement in the incident. The move is seen as a desperate bid by Pakistan to deflect blame and avoid facing consequences for its alleged role in fostering terrorism in the region. The conflicting narratives surrounding the Pahalgam attack underscore the complex web of political and military dynamics at play in the volatile region. The incident has once again highlighted the need for enhanced cooperation and intelligence sharing among nations to combat the growing threat of terrorism. As the situation continues to unfold, it remains imperative for authorities to remain vigilant and resolute in their efforts to address the root causes of terrorism and ensure the safety and security of all citizens.
