Watch: Who is The Resistance Front? Lashkar-backed outfit behind Pahalgam attack
The Resistance Front (TRF), a Lashkar-e-Taiba offshoot, claimed responsibility for a terror attack in Pahalgam, Jammu and Kashmir, that killed 26 civilians, including two foreigners. The video analysis explains TRF's origins after the abrogation of Article 370, its links to Pakistan, and its pattern of targeting non-locals and minorities. It also covers why the group was banned under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA) and how it uses technology and propaganda to fuel militancy in the region. The attack occurred in July 2025, and the video was published by The Hindu on July 18, 2025.
