The terrorist attack in Pahalgam on Tuesday resulted in the deaths of over two dozen civilians.

The statement came shortly after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu expressed sorrow over the attack, which resulted in multiple casualties.

He conveyed condolences to the victims' families and reiterated Israel's commitment to standing by India in the fight against terrorism.

"My dear friend @narendramodi, I am deeply saddened by the barbaric terrorist attack in #Pahalgam, Jammu & Kashmir, that killed and injured dozens of innocents. Our thoughts and prayers are with the victims & their families. Israel stands with India in its fight against terrorism," the Israeli Prime Minister's Office posted on X.

Tuesday's incident is considered one of the most serious attacks in Jammu and Kashmir since the abrogation of Article 370 in 2019.

The Resistance Front (TRF), a shadow outfit of the banned Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT), claimed responsibility for the attack that targeted tourists in the Baisaran area of South Kashmir. (ANI)
