On April 22, 2025, the peaceful Baisaran Valley in Pahalgam, Kashmir, turned into a scene of horror when heavily armed terrorists attacked a group of tourists, killing 26 and injuring over 20. This deadly Kashmir terror attack is one of the worst in recent history.
According to reports, the militants—believed to be linked to Lashkar-e-Taiba and Jaish-e-Mohammed—targeted Hindu tourists after verifying their religion, sparking outrage across the country. A tourist inadvertently filmed part of the massacre, and the viral Kashmir video has since circulated online, raising global awareness and horror.
In retaliation, the Indian government launched a massive counter-terror crackdown in Kashmir, detaining over 2,000 and demolishing homes tied to suspected militants. However, the response has triggered debates over human rights violations and the risk of collective punishment.
The Pahalgam attack has also heightened tensions between India and Pakistan, with diplomatic ties worsening and calls for international intervention growing louder.
This heartbreaking incident is now a defining moment in the Kashmir conflict, reviving urgent questions about tourist safety in Jammu & Kashmir, the role of cross-border terrorism, and the region’s fragile peace.
