The death toll in the devastating terror attack at Pahalgam’s Baisaran meadow rose to 26, with victims including a Navy officer, a tourist from Kerala, and nationals from multiple states and countries. At least 17 others sustained injuries in the brazen daylight assault, which targeted civilians in one of Kashmir’s most popular tourist destinations. The attack, described by authorities as the worst against civilians in recent years, has triggered nationwide outrage and heightened security concerns ahead of the annual Amarnath Yatra.

Among the deceased were six victims from Maharashtra including two from Mumbai and three from Gujarat. Karnataka lost two of its residents, while one each hailed from Haryana, Uttar Pradesh, Odisha, Bihar, Kerala, Madhya Pradesh, Chandigarh, West Bengal, Andhra Pradesh, Jammu and Kashmir, and Arunachal Pradesh. Two foreign nationals—one from Nepal and another from the UAE—were also among those killed.
