Security sweep after Pahalgam horror
These 14 individuals, whose properties were demolished by security forces, are all linked to major terrorist groups operating in Jammu and Kashmir. The demolitions are part of a broader crackdown on terrorism in the region, triggered by the deadly Pahalgam attack that left 26 people dead, including a Nepali citizen, and several others injured.
