US labels the group accused of Pahalgam attack a ‘terrorist’ organisation

JAMMU AND KASHMIR, INDIA, JUL 17 – The Resistance Front, linked to Lashkar-e-Taiba, was designated a foreign terrorist organization after an attack killing 26 in Kashmir, marking a key step in US counterterrorism efforts.

  • On July 18, 2025, Secretary of State Marco Rubio designated The Resistance Front as a Foreign Terrorist Organization and Specially Designated Global Terrorist, noting its claim of the April 22 Pahalgam attack.
  • According to the South Asia Terrorism Portal, The Resistance Front emerged as an offshoot of Lashkar-e-Taiba.
  • Following the assault, India launched Operation Sindoor on May 7 targeting nine terror sites, ending by a ceasefire on May 10.
  • The UN Security Council condemned it in the strongest terms and called for accountability, demonstrating international support for counter-terrorism efforts, Secretary of State Marco Rubio said.
  • These designations will bolster India’s case at the FATF, as they demonstrate the US commitment to counter-terrorism and legal action against Pakistan-based groups.
