President Shavkat Mirziyoyev has sent condolences to the Indian President Draupadi Murmu and Prime Minister Narendra Modi over the numerous casualties and injuries in the terrorist attack in Kashmir.
Shavkat Mirziyoyev expressed sincere words of sympathy to the families and friends of the victims, to all the people of India, and also wishes for a swift recovery to the injured, the presidential spokesman Sherzod Asadov said.
At least 28 tourists were killed and many wounded on Tuesday when terrorists opened fire in a picturesque meadow near the resort town of Pahalgam in J&K, marking the deadliest attack since the abrogation of Article 370 in 2019.
The Resistance Front, a proxy of ISI-backed LeT, claimed responsibility for the attack.
The attack coincided with US Vice-President J D Vance's four-day visit to India and PM Narendra Modi's arrival in Saudi Arabia for strengthening bilateral engagement with the influential Islamic country. Equally significantly, it followed a bellicose speech of Asim Munir, chief of the Pakistan army, the mainstay of terrorists.
