At least 26 people died and 17 others were injured when suspected militants opened fire at a popular tourist spot in the Pahalgam region of India's Jammu and Kashmir territory this week.

The Pahalgam terror attack, claimed by Pakistan-backed TRF, has reignited tensions between India and Pakistan. Intelligence points to a larger “Southern strategy” involving 42 launch pads across the LoC.

Kashmir Resistance,” a previously unknown militant group, claimed responsibility for the attack in two messages on social media.
