In the wake of the deadliest terror attack in Jammu and Kashmir since the 2019 Pulwama bombing, senior U.S. officials, including Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard and President Donald Trump, have extended their condolences and pledged solidarity with India. The attack, which took place in Pahalgam earlier this week, resulted in the deaths of 26 civilians, mostly Hindu tourists.

The Resistance Front (TRF), believed to be a proxy of the banned Pakistan-based terror group Lashkar-e-Taiba, has claimed responsibility for the massacre.
