Prime Minister Narendra Modi has asked Union Home Minister Amit Shah to visit the Union Territory and take all suitable steps. Mr Shah will leave for Srinagar shortly.
"Please save my husband," a woman's bone-chilling wails echoed through the picturesque valley of Jammu and Kashmir's Pahalgam after terrorists opened fire at tourists today. Twenty-six people have died in the attack, sources said. The death count, however, can change as several tourists were rushed to hospitals with serious injuries.
Distressing visuals doing the rounds on social media showed several women pleading for help. "We were having a snack when a man came and shot my husband," said one of them, as another, with blood splattered on her face, looked helplessly at the man recording the video.
Several injured people were seen on the ground. A visibly shaken child was also seen with the group of tourists who survived the attack.

Another woman, standing next to a severely injured man, pleaded, "Please save my husband. For god's sake, save him".
The heartbreak continues as another cry for help was heard, "Please, someone take him to the hospital. Please, please help." She was standing next to an injured man with his shirt soaked in blood.
