The occupation of land and resources, as well as the suffering experienced by Kashmiris, are unlikely to cease anytime soon. My friend, who originally comes from Indian-administered Jammu and Kashmir (IOK) and is now living in Muscat, conveyed that the area is extremely militarized and has a large number of checkpoints located very close to each other.

Why bother providing justifications for a false flag operation that was carried out solely for political gain? The attack never actually occurred and was only staged for media attention. These kinds of incidents repeatedly implicate the Pakistani government, and despite lacking evidence, the international community readily believes them, which is unfortunate.

He suggested that there was a lot of plausible deniability that the agencies could leverage.
