Abdullah, the former chief minister, stated that if the Centre does not initiate a probe into the two violent incidents, his party would seek the involvement of an international committee to identify those responsible for the attacks. The attacks occurred on Saturday night, resulting in the death of Aijaz Sheikh, a former sarpanch associated with the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), in Shopian, and injuring a tourist couple from Rajasthan in Anantnag.

Pakistani Terrorists who are supposed to be behind multiple attacks on security forces in the twin districts of Rajouri and Poonch are using sophisticated tech and secured communication networks to evade being tracked by the security agencies, said officials. 

US-made abandoned weapons in Afghanistan have found their way to Kashmir, and similarly, terrorists trained in Afghanistan are thought to have entered the Rajouri and Poonch regions.
