LeT Terrorist Issues Jihad Threat to Hindus Amid India's Warning

• Lashkar-e-Taiba terrorist Abu Musa Kashmiri called for jihad and violence against Hindus in a video from Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir.
• Kashmiri, a senior commander of LeT’s JKUM, stated that freedom would be achieved by "cutting the throats of Hindus" and that the Kashmir issue can only be resolved through jihad.
• The threat comes a day after Indian Army Chief General Upendra Dwivedi warned of a firm response to terrorism and highlighted Operation Sindoor as a demonstration of India's swift response capabilities.
• General Dwivedi emphasized that talks with Pakistan cannot resume alongside terror, and India is prepared for long-duration conflicts.
• Terrorist incidents in Jammu and Kashmir have significantly declined since the abrogation of Article 370, attributed to political clarity and sustained counter-terror operations.

Why It Matters: A LeT terrorist issued a direct threat of violence against Hindus, underscoring Pakistan's support for jihadist groups.
