Indian officials are devising a response to a deadly mass shooting in Kashmir that left 26 dead and 17 wounded, with heightened security measures in place. Gunmen in military-style uniforms attacked the popular tourist site Baisaran meadow in Anantnag district, marking the deadliest assault on civilians since the 2008 Mumbai attacks. Responsibility for the attack has been claimed by The Resistance Front (TRF), a group linked to Lashkar-e-Taiba, amid concerns of escalating tensions in the historically disputed region of Kashmir, where India and Pakistan maintain rival claims.
The Resistance Front, claiming responsibility for the attack, is seen as a Kashmiri separatist group affiliated with Lashkar-e-Taiba, which escalates regional tensions.
This deadly mass shooting at Baisaran meadow underscores the ongoing security challenges in Jammu and Kashmir and threatens to heighten India-Pakistan tensions.
