Details of Pahalgam Attack Emerge as National Outrage Grows
On April 22, gun-wielding militants launched merciless attacks at Baisaran, one of the famous hill resorts of Pahalgam, in Anantnag district. Official reports reveal that the militants had encircled a group of tourists and opened fire from close quarters, resulting in collective casualties. 25 tourists and a young Kashmiri resident were among those killed.
The attack has sparked international outrage and fresh calls for greater security for conflict areas. The government has since deepened its investigation, describing the attack as a well-coordinated act of terrorism intended to undermine peace within the region.
