Srinagar intensifies security measures amid threats of potential terror attack.

Srinagar has heightened security measures in response to specific intelligence indicating a potential targeted terror attack, particularly focusing on vehicle checks and frisking. Authorities have established multiple checkpoints and intensified patrols, especially targeting vehicles from outside Jammu and Kashmir, while searching for a white Ford EcoSport believed to be transporting militants. This proactive approach, which includes detaining suspects and enhancing surveillance, reflects ongoing challenges with militant activity in the region, notably from groups like Lashkar-e-Taiba and Hizbul Mujahideen. The community’s cooperation is deemed crucial, with police encouraging the reporting of suspicious activities to ensure civilian safety and bolster regional stability amid heightened tensions.
