Earlier on Saturday, dozens of protestors from various organisations protested near the Pakistan Embassy in Kathmandu, alleging that the nation harboured terrorists and targeted attacks on Hindus in Pahalgam earlier this week.
Twenty-six tourists – 25 Indians and one Nepali citizen – were killed in the attack on Tuesday at Baisaran, dubbed ‘mini Switzerland’ in Pahalgam. The Resistance Front, a shadow group of the banned Pakistan-based Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) terror group, claimed responsibility of the brutal attack.
Meanwhile, in a major development following the attack, intelligence agencies have compiled a list of 14 local terrorists who are actively operating in Jammu and Kashmir. According to sources, these individuals, aged between 20 and 40 years, are helping foreign terrorists from Pakistan by providing logistical and ground support. (ANI)
