Kashmir Valley on High Alert After Recent Terror Strikes
In the last two weeks, two attacks happened in southern Kashmir.
A police officer and two workers were killed.
A group called The Resistance Front said they did it and said they might do more.
Because of this, the police put a lot of soldiers and checkpoints everywhere, especially on the path to a holy shrine.
They also arrested some people who might be planning more attacks.
The police are still looking for the rest of the attackers.
Two terror attacks in south Kashmir killed a police head constable and two non‑local labourers.
The Resistance Front, linked to Lashkar‑e‑Taiba, claimed responsibility and warned of more attacks.
Over 100,000 security personnel deployed along the Amarnath Yatra route, with checkpoints and vehicle checks in Srinagar.
Nearly 3,000 suspected overground workers detained; two arrested from Pulwama and Baramulla with arms and anti‑national posters.
Security forces intensified search, cordon operations, and investigations across all districts of the Kashmir Valley.
