Pahalgam Terror Attack: Tourists Shot After Being Asked If They Were Hindu | Jist

In one of the deadliest terror attacks since the abrogation of Article 370, over 28 tourists were brutally killed in Pahalgam’s Baisaran area of Jammu & Kashmir. The attackers, dressed in army uniforms, opened indiscriminate fire on civilians. Eyewitnesses shared chilling accounts, with some saying the terrorists asked victims about their religion before shooting them. Prime Minister Narendra Modi strongly condemned the attack, declaring that the perpetrators "won’t be spared," while Home Minister Amit Shah immediately flew to Srinagar to hold emergency meetings with security agencies. The Resistance Front (TRF), a known proxy of Pakistan-based Lashkar-e-Taiba, has claimed responsibility for the massacre. The attack has once again brought attention to Pakistan's involvement, especially in light of recent provocative remarks made by its Army Chief, Asim Munir. This video delves into the horrific testimonies of survivors and investigates the origins and objectives of TRF. It traces a timeline of major civilian-targeted terror attacks in Kashmir and examines how the region’s booming tourism post-Article 370 has become a new target for terror outfits aiming to disrupt peace. The patterns of violence leading up to previous retaliatory military actions, such as those following the Uri and Pulwama attacks, are also analyzed. Additionally, we look at the public outrage and intense discourse on social media surrounding this brutal assault.
