Indian forces have killed three Pakistanis involved in the April attack on Hindu tourists in the Jammu and Kashmir federal territory in which 26 men were shot dead, Home Minister Amit Shah said on Tuesday.

SRINAGAR – A former Pakistani soldier-turned-terrorist, who was the purported mastermind of the brutal Pahalgam attack, and one of the participants, were among the three Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) terrorists cornered and killed by the security forces in ‘Operation Mahadev’ in J&K’s Srinagar district on July 28, officials said.

A government minister in India says three suspected militants killed in a gunfight in Kashmir were responsible for a massacre earlier this year
