In a statement issued by the Foreign Office, Pakistan extended heartfelt condolences to the families of the deceased in IIOJK.
The Foreign Office spokesperson also conveyed best wishes for the swift recovery of those injured in the incident.
IIOJK Chief Minister Omar Abdullah has condemned the recent attack on tourists in the region. The incident occurred during the visit of the US Vice President to India.
Analysts have raised concerns that the attack may be part of a false flag operation, as similar incidents have been staged by the Modi government in the past to gain political leverage. Such actions are often used to divert attention from internal failures and stir anti-Pakistan sentiment.
