India's Home Minister Amit Shah said three suspected rebels killed in Indian-administered Kashmir were responsible for the April killings of tourists in the disputed region of Pahalgam, which led to a significant escalation in tensions between India and Pakistan over the militant attack. The suspects were reportedly gunned down by security forces on Tuesday in Anantnag district, bringing an end to a manhunt that lasted several weeks. Authorities claimed that the three men had been linked to the April 14 attack that killed eight tourists, including four foreigners, in Pahalgam's tourist hub.
