At least 26 people were killed Tuesday and more than a dozen injured after gunmen opened fire on a group of tourists in Pahalgam valley in Kashmir.
It was the worst assault targeting civilians in years, but the restive region has been the scene of much violence in the past. The attack came as U.S. Vice President JD Vance was in India, which evoked memories of an even deadlier attack in 2000 shortly before a visit to India by then-President Bill Clinton.
