Srinagar, India — Authorities in Indian-controlled Kashmir have temporarily shuttered more than half of the tourist resorts in the scenic Himalayan region after last week’s deadly attack on tourists raised tensions between India and Pakistan and led to an intensifying security crackdown in Kashmir.

The decision to temporarily shut 48 holiday resorts came a week after gunmen killed 26 people, most of them Indian tourists, in the restive region. View on euronews

In the days since, tensions have risen dangerously between India and Pakistan, which have fought two of their three wars over Kashmir.
