US Designates The Resistance Front as Terrorist Organization

In a significant move, the United States has officially designated The Resistance Front (TRF), a group linked to the militant organization Lashkar-e-Taiba, as a foreign terrorist organization following its involvement in the recent Pahalgam attack, which resulted in numerous civilian casualties. This designation has been welcomed by India, which views it as a strong affirmation of their counter-terrorism cooperation with the US. Indian officials, including External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar, have expressed support for the US decision, highlighting its importance in combating terrorism in the region. The action against TRF is part of a broader commitment to countering terrorism and has been seen as a setback for Pakistan amidst growing international scrutiny of its support for militant groups.
