A deadly militant attack on tourists in the Pahalgam area of India's Himalayan territory of Jammu and Kashmir has drawn widespread international condemnation.

Members of Jammu and Kashmir Awami National Conference shout slogans during a protest after a deadly attack that killed 26 people, mostly tourists, in Srinagar, Indian controlled Kashmir, Thursday, April.

The nuclear-armed rivals, which both claim Kashmir and administer separate parts of it, are at a dangerous crossroad after Tuesday’s militant attack, analysts said.
