A new group called Pasdaran-e-Hurriyat Kashmir says it was behind the November 11 attack on CRPF personnel in Kulgam, Jammu and Kashmir, which left three jawans injured.
The claim popped up on an Instagram account previously known as Yalghaar Media, hinting at links to older terror networks.
Officials suspect the Resistance Front involvement
Officials think The Resistance Front, a Lashkar-e-Taiba proxy, might actually be running this "new" group and warned security forces of a "new wave of devastating attacks."
Security was tightened in Jammu and Kashmir, especially after two Special Police Officers were found killed in Kishtwar.
Preliminary intelligence inputs have pointed to the possible movement of foreign and local terrorists in the wider region, including suspected Jaish-e-Mohammed and Hizbul Mujahideen elements, putting everyone further on edge.
