The mastermind behind the Pahalgam terror attack was among three Pakistani terrorists killed in an encounter in Srinagar under Operation Mahadev, sources said. Top Lashkar-e-Taiba commander Suleiman Shah, also known as Musa Fauji, was identified as the key conspirator and executor of the attack, which left 26 civilians – mostly tourists – dead.
"Three terrorists have been neutralised in an intense firefight. Operation Continues," Srinagar-based Chinar Corps of the Army had earlier posted on X.
