A significant attack in Indian-administered Kashmir during peak tourist season resulted in 26 fatalities, marking the worst violence against civilians in the region in 25 years. The assailants, believed to be linked to the terrorist group The Resistance Front, targeted tourists. Jammu and Kashmir's Chief Minister Omar Abdullah condemned the attack, describing its scale as unprecedented. International reactions include support from President Trump and condolences from China. As Kashmir seeks to boost its tourism sector, the implications of such violence on visitor safety remain a critical concern.
This attack on our visitors is an abomination, Abdullah said in a statement.
President Trump offered full support to India to bring to justice the perpetrators of this heinous attack.
All those killed in Tuesday's attack were listed as residents of India, except for one man from Nepal.
The attack had been much larger than anything we've seen directed at civilians in recent years.
