Twenty-six people have died and several others have been injured after gunmen opened fire on a group of domestic tourists visiting a popular beauty spot in Indian-administered Kashmir on Tuesday.
The attack took place in Pahalgam, a picturesque town in the Himalayas often described as the “Switzerland of India”.
There is a shutdown across the region, where schools, business and shops have been closed. The BBC’s Yogita Limaye reports from outside the airport in Srinagar city, where an uneasy calm prevails.
