Ayodhya, Varanasi among likely targets of terrorists in Red Fort

India

The recent Red Fort blast in Delhi, which left 12 dead and several injured, has led investigators to a disturbing find—terrorists were planning attacks on hospitals and crowded areas, with Ayodhya and Varanasi among the major target locations.
During interrogations, officials discovered a sleeper module was activated in Ayodhya.
Authorities have seized huge amounts of explosive materials but are still searching for 300kg of missing ammonium nitrate.

Investigators are focused on breaking up this terror network

Security teams have already recovered 2,900kg of explosives that reached India via routes passing through Bangladesh and Nepal.
Interestingly, the Red Fort itself wasn't the real target; the device used didn't even have proper triggers, suggesting the blast was set off in panic.
Right now, investigators are focused on breaking up this terror network before any more attacks can happen.
