Pakistan's Terrorist Attacks Signal Rising Threat to India
A group linked to the Pakistani army attacked police in a town called Anantnag and later killed two workers in Kulgam.
A Pakistani official said the army lost many soldiers fighting other groups.
Families of the police who died in another attack in Quetta sat in protest until a special commission was set up.
The Pakistani official blamed India and the Afghan Taliban for helping the attackers, even quoting a verse from the Quran.
He warned that more attacks could happen if India does not stop supporting terrorism.
Lashkar-e-Toiba proxy The Resistance Front carried out attacks in Anantnag and Kulgam, killing police and laborers.
Pakistan's ISPR Director General Ahmed Sharif Chaudhry reported 303 soldiers and 194 law enforcement casualties in anti‑TTP and BLA operations since January.
Families of police killed in Quetta staged a sit‑in demanding a judicial commission to investigate security lapses.
Chaudhry accused India and the Afghan Taliban of supporting TTP and BLA, citing a Quranic verse.
The attacks are viewed as a warning to India amid concerns over Pakistan's security strategy and potential cross‑border terrorism.
