India hunts gunmen in IIOJK

Armed police and soldiers searched homes and forests for gunmen in the Indian-Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir on Friday and India's army chief reviewed security there after the killing of 26 men at a tourist site.

India's army chief visited Srinagar and authorities scoured Pahalgam, the scenic town where the attack took place on Tuesday.

"We will ensure that not a single drop of the Indus River's water reaches Pakistan," Indian Water Resources Minister CR Paatil said in a post on X.

Indian general Upendra Dwivedi visited Kashmir to review security a day after Prime Minister Narendra Modi vowed to chase the perpetrators to the "ends of the earth".

Several leaders of Modi's Hindu nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party have called for new military action against Pakistan.
