 "US President Trump condoles Pahalgam attack, says US stands strong with India against terrorism")
US President Donald Trump on Tuesday condoled the terror attack in Kashmir, saying the US stands strong with India against terrorism, underlining that Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the people of India “have our full support”.
“Deeply disturbing news out of Kashmir. The United States stands strong with India against Terrorism. We pray for the souls of those lost, and for the recovery of the injured. Prime Minister Modi, and the incredible people of India, have our full support and deepest sympathies. Our hearts are with you all!” Trump said in a post on Truth Social.
Multiple tourists were feared killed and at least 20 injured when terrorists opened fire in a picturesque meadow near Kashmir’s Pahalgam town. The death toll could be more than 20, a high-ranking Indian official indicated without getting into details.
The attack came during US Vice President J D Vance’s maiden visit to India.
Vance also posted his condolences to the victims of the devastating terrorist attack.
“Usha and I extend our condolences to the victims of the devastating terrorist attack in Pahalgam, India. Over the past few days, we have been overcome with the beauty of this country and its people. Our thoughts and prayers are with them as they mourn this horrific attack,” he posted on X.
In one of the deadliest attacks in Jammu and Kashmir since the 2019 Pulwama strike, Lashkar-linked terrorists opened fire on a group of tourists in Pahalgam on Tuesday, killing at least 28 people, including foreign nationals, and injuring many others. The Resistance Front (TRF), an offshoot of the Lashkar-e-Taiba group, claimed responsibility for the attack.
