Terrorists Target Tourists in Kashmir – An atmosphere of terror prevailed in the beautiful Baisaran Valley of Pahalgam in Jammu and Kashmir today. Here the terrorists targeted tourists in a cowardly act. One tourist lost his life in this tragic attack, while 12 others were injured. The bad news is that the condition of two tourists remains critical. Three local citizens are also among the injured.
As soon as the news of the attack was received, the security forces and medical team immediately reached the spot and relief work has been started. It is being told that the terrorists fired indiscriminately in the upper green field of a tourist resort in Baisaran Valley, in which these tourists were injured. It is feared that this was a well-planned attack and the terrorists were hiding among the common people.
Intelligence agencies suspect TRF, QAT sent to the spot
According to reports, the terrorists came on horseback and fired bullets at the unarmed tourists. Some mute horses have also been injured in this firing. If sources of the intelligence security agency are to be believed, the terrorist organization TRF (The Resistance Front) may be behind this nefarious act. Sources also say that two to three attackers may be in police or army uniform.
After this attack, the security forces have started a vigorous search operation in the entire area and security arrangements have been tightened. Additional Quick Reaction Team (QAT) of CRPF has also been immediately sent to the spot. Security personnel are searching every corner. Meanwhile, TRF has taken responsibility for this attack. This terrorist organization is associated with Lashkar-e-Taiba.
Pahalgam: Why did the sound of bullets echo in the peaceful valley?
Actually, Pahalgam is considered a peaceful area, where terrorist incidents usually do not occur. It is known as a safe place for tourists. But, the way terrorists have attacked here on Tuesday has also raised questions on the security system here.
Pahalgam is famous for its dense forests, clear water lakes and vast green fields. It has always been a favorite place for tourists. To reach this peaceful area, one has to either walk or ride a horse. In such a situation, such an attack by terrorists is extremely worrying.
