Pahalgam attack live updates: Prime Minister Narendra Modi condemned the Pahalgam terror attack on Tuesday, saying the guilty will be brought to justice and that India's resolve to fight terrorism is “unshakable.”

Pahalgam attack live updates: At least 12 tourists were injured while several are feared dead in a terrorist attack in Pahalgam's Baisaran in Jammu and Kashmir. Authorities are yet to release an official death toll. Gunshots were heard in the area, following which security forces rushed there. Initial reports suggested a possible terror attack at a site frequented by tourists, the police said. Security forces have been rushed to the area, and an operation is currently underway, reported PTI.

The incident occurred at around 3 pm when terrorists came down from the mountain in Baisaran valley and started firing at the tourists who frequent the place, which is often dubbed as 'mini Switzerland' because of its long, lush green meadows.

Authorities pressed a chopper into service for the evacuation of the injured persons, the officials said, adding some of the injured were brought down from the meadows by local people on their ponies.

The incident comes when Kashmir is witnessing a surge in tourist arrivals after reeling under militancy for years. Also, the 38-day Amarnath pilgrimage is scheduled to begin on July 3.

 
I hope and pray that these terrorists are killed by mutilating one part of the body at a time in the span of several days. Their sufferings should be telecasted so that brothers of these scums think twice before doing something cowardly like this again.
 
RIP.

Kashmir should say goodbye to full statehood; it must remain a Union Territory indefinitely if it wants to stamp out terror attacks for good.
For now we should support these bereaved families. Local kashmiri are more than happy to remain as UT. It's political thugs who want Statehood for themselves so that they can loot more freely. Infact Kashmir has seen less corruption more development during governor rule
 
Really heart wrenching this. Whole Kashmir is crying with these tourists. Whoever did this has no religion. It's shocking how such attack can occur in such a high security zone. What are 10 million force doing if they can't stop such attack. Again innocent lives lost and such wounds will remain with Kashmir forever.
 
President rule should be impose immediately…. Omar government should’ve kicked… there shouldn’t be any election for next 10 years and combining operations by Indian army every month
 
You have to be a disgusting individual for finding fun in this and justifying the massacre of innocent civilians.
We know you low lives love to celebrate the death of muslims or laud your rapist army. Even in this thread after a tragedy the usual suspects come and chat crap about Islam.Unlike you, you won't catch me justifying the death of innocents anywhere. It is an act of terror that occured.
 
Ssssshhh …. Listen !
They still say-“Terror has No Religion"

Terror has no religion, just like Hindutva has nothing to do with Hinduism.

People twist faith to justify their hate, whether it’s Hindutva weaponizing Hinduism or Zionists hijacking Judaism.

I get it, emotions are high. But maybe try not being a bigot? I know, tough ask when you’ve been marinating in that mindset your whole life.

Out of respect for the dead may I ask moderators to kindly remove their photos. Their family members may not even know they have been cruelly killed. I understand some people would like to use dead bodies to try and point score online, but it just appears to be crossing a line that they are being posted here like this.
 
He uses laugh emojis and :kp when Muslim dies btw very shameless man.

They cheer when Israelis kill innocent Palestinian women and children.
They cheer when minority Muslims are attacked in India.

Difference between them and us (Muslims) is we condemn all innocent killings whether done by Muslims or non-Muslims. They don't condemn when innocent Muslims die.

Nobody celebrates whatever crap you said. However i got no sympathy for terrorists if you find them to be your kind. And yes i have seen plenty of hindutva this hindutva that crap from you so need to act a saint here.

I take pride in my army and i hope they catch and punish the animals responsible in most inhumane way possible.

You can take pride in your army all you want but then spare us your lectures and faux moral indignation. Dress in Khakis and match in your back garden. We don't care about your army.

Yes despite provocation and gaslighting we should be condemning these deaths no matter the victims:kp

Match in back garden??? I have no clue what did you mean there.

Anyways this isn't about Armies of khakis so i wouldn't respond to it.
 
My sister's friend's husband was killed in this terrorist attack .he was from haryana.
I have friends who lost their families, killed by snipers and bombed without mercy, and you made it a point to justify their deaths, as if they somehow deserved it.

Even so, I truly hope your sister’s friends survive this tragedy. No one, absolutely no one deserves to lose loved ones like that. Not mine, not yours. And despite the pain of seeing you defend that kind of violence, I still wish them a future filled with peace and healing.
 
Who did it?

You are the one who bought army in this thread. You didn't speak about the deceased or who caused this. You chose to speak about other things first. Goes on to show your agenda. What does other posters or army got to do with this terrorist attack. That was an absolutely shameful post by you.

You can't separate it. You can't justify one and cry at the other else the violence continues and innocent's die.

We must not speak ill of any religion—agreed. However, in this case, and in many of the major terrorist attacks around the world, the terrorists themselves claim they are acting in the name of Islam. So, isn't blaming the people posting about it here an easy way to avoid addressing the core issue?

Put yourself in our shoes. We are not Muslims, and we don't have in-depth knowledge of your holy book. Most of what we know about Islam comes from posts on forums like this or from conversations with Muslims who describe it as a religion of peace—which it very well may be.

However, when we repeatedly hear about attacks like this where the terrorists ask about a person’s religion and then kill them, explicitly claiming they are doing it for Islam, what kind of perception do you think that creates for non-Muslims?

If the roles were reversed, if a group of people stormed into Pakistan shouting "Jai Shri Ram" while committing violence, would you not question the teachings of Hinduism?

Instead of getting defensive, perhaps it's worth considering the perspective of non-Muslims. If anything, people have continued to treat Islam with respect and restraint despite the numerous atrocities committed by extremists in its name over the past couple of decades.
 
Condolences for the loss of life.

What i can't fathom is the crocodile tears of the normal Hindutwa crew who continue to turn a blind eye and rather blame the victims of oppression and sympathize with Terrorists in the ME.

Victim mentality is full display by terrorist sympathiser.

No one cheered killing of Palestinians. Most of the Indians here condemned Israeli attacks.

I don't see the same issue here being raised on much larger scale of violence such as the ethnic cleansing in African region. Reasons?

1. The ummah thing doesn't appear when muslims kill among muslims which is happening in Africa
2. You guys only unite when its against other religion but doesn't care a zilch when its a non-religious issue. You guys are happy as long as religion expands but people may live in misery. Doesn't matter.

So, please stop using this selective outrage thing when it’s being showcased the most by posters here.

You are wrong about one thing. Difference between muslims and others is - Everything boils down to religion for muslims. For others, there are other things equally or much more important.

I mean can you explicitly say that “Human life is much more important than religion?”

No interest in stepping into shoes of anyone. Until they have the same regard for others as they want for themselves. If you want to play that game I would advise you to step into the shoes of a muslim kashmiri who has lost everything at the hands of what he sees a Hindu army. You will run before attempting to do so.

The psychology is clear as day Look at @Devadwal spams :kpemoji in every thread where something bad happens in Pakistan but when there is a tragedy involving Indians the stick is out to blame all Muslims.

Why would a Muslim in South India for example be held responsible for this attack in Kashmir? It is a territorial dispute specific to one region. The origins of the dispute and the perpetrators are well known and obvious yet when push comes to shove the crimes of one side are swept under the carpet....

@DeadlyVenom bhai is a reasonable guy though but for some reason he got upset. Maybe having a tough day in office
I am working from home watching PSL bro no tough days for me. I just showed a mirror to some and spoke in same language they do when our people die and their tuttee came out.

:kp

It is clear cut terrorism worth all condemnation. No sympathy for anyone who harms innocent people. They deserve a painful death.
 
I wanted to visit Kashmir all my life, but my parents discouraged me from it. Not anymore.
 
Sad incident, and offcourse I would condemn this.

But than again alot of posters remember how Indian posters here celebrated what the BLA did, and justified it and Devadwal was praising how the BLA let go Balochis.

He had no issue when BLA asked the people what region they belonged from.... He kept using his emoji and trolling

But now that his own extended family was targetted, the emoji has vanished.

Who is saying South Indian Muslim's are responsible?

However, if the terrorists themselves are saying they are doing on behalf of a specific religion, we have to talk about it. No point getting touchy and defensive about it. It will be akin to blindfold yourself from reality.

It is all good to read about threads from @LordJames about how good and tolerant Islam in. I also strongly want to believe in it. However incidents like this are complete contrast to what we are been told.
 
You can't separate it. You can't justify one and cry at the other else the violence continues and innocent's die.
You can go by your country's allegations to keep perpetuating the kashmir story but what matters is credibility and proof. Pakistan even said they have won the wars versus India and printed newspapers saying the same. I need not say what's the reality. Regardless of the constant bickering aside, this is a terrorist attack by zealots in the name of religion. If possible, condemn it else no problem. Your first post on this thread is utterly distasteful for your standard. Shows there are no reasonable guys on that side.
 
It's important to focus on the facts and condemn acts of violence regardless of the circumstances. While historical conflicts are complex, terrorism in any form should be universally denounced, as it undermines peace and security for everyone involved.

My sister's friend's husband was killed in this terrorist attack .he was from haryana.
My friend Syed Hussain from Kashmir also died in this attack. Seems like he was not asked about his religion? So shameful to hear that you are celebrating killing of innocent Palestinians and minorities. If you really do then there is no difference between the terrorists who did today's attack and you .

Shame on you @Devadwal
You have no right to condemn today's killing when u were celebrating BLA attack.
 

At least 20 feared killed in militant attack on tourists in Indian Kashmir, security sources say​


At least 20 people were feared killed after suspected militants opened fire on tourists in India's Jammu and Kashmir territory on Tuesday, three security sources said, the worst attack on civilians in the troubled Himalayan region for years.

The attack occurred in Pahalgam, a popular destination in the scenic, mountainous region where mass tourism, especially during the summer months, has resurged as Islamist militant violence has eased in recent years.

One security source put the death toll at 20, while the second put it at 24 and the third at 26. All three spoke on the condition of anonymity as they were not authorised to speak to the media.

"The firing happened in front of us," one witness told broadcaster India Today, without giving his name. "We thought someone was setting off firecrackers, but when we heard other people (screaming), we quickly got out of there..., saved our lives and ran."
"For four kilometers, we did not stop ... I am shaking," another witness told India Today.

The attack took place in an off-the-road meadow and two or three militants were involved, the Indian Express newspaper reported, citing an unidentified senior police officer.

"The death toll is still being ascertained so I don’t want to get into those details," Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah said in a post on X. "Needless to say, this attack is much larger than anything we’ve seen directed at civilians in recent years."
The nationalities of the victims were not immediately known.

A little-known militant group called the "Kashmir Resistance" claimed responsibility for the attack in a social media message. It expressed discontent that more than 85,000 "outsiders" had been settled in the region, spurring a "demographic change".
"Consequently, violence will be directed toward those attempting to settle illegally," it said.

The regional government of Jammu and Kashmir, where Pahalgam is located, told its legislature this month that nearly 84,000 non-locals, from within India, had been given domicile rights in the territory in the last two years.

F..k this candle March. This would have not possible without local support.
Who the hell are you to dictate what people should do. You just get lost terrorist supporter. You don't have any right to comment on such attacks when you are supporting same on other minority communities
 
It's funny to see many extremist Hindus in this thread make apologies for their Hindu army's reign of terror in the region, but then go on tirades about other religions.

Indian armys exploits of rapes and terror in the region are well known. If you punch the air in delight at those massacres but shed tears at this one, you are just as much of a terrorist who committed this act today.

These poor tourists fell victim to the drama perpetrated by the GOI that the Kashmir issue is solved.
There are people from all religions in the Indian army. The guy who famously broke Pakistan was a Parsi. If you see the world famous picture of 1971 surrender, you will see a Sikh from the Indian side. A lot of coastal Christian’s from Kerala, Goa are in the Indian navy. It’s a family tradition in some places.Actor Naseeuddin Shah’s brother was a high ranking Air Force officer and plenty other Indian Muslims in high ranking positions. Obviously by volume it will have a lot of Hindus but I think you equate everything with Pakistan in your head but it’s not like that.

Also if they wanted to take revenge on the army or government attacking innocent civilians makes them terrorists. Not an excuse. From what I hear BLA only targets army and police and not civilians. If they do that would make them terrorists. These are just religious motivated jihadis and soon they will find out the concept of heaven and hell for themselves.
 
Damn, the so called “sub humans” are out here condemning terrorism, while the ones who slapped that label on them are busy having meltdowns over it.

The irony’s not just loud, it’s divine. God has a way of peeling back the mask, exposing the hypocrisy, and making sure the world watches you choke on your own double standards
