Shock and anger are growing after gunmen killed at least 24 tourists in Indian-administered Kashmir, with reports suggesting that some of those wounded are in critical condition.
The attack happened on Tuesday in Pahalgam, a Himalayan town famous for its stunning valleys.
No group has claimed responsibility for the killings yet.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi has cut short his visit to Saudi Arabia to return to Delhi.
Kashmir, which is claimed by both India and Pakistan, has seen a decades-long insurgency against Delhi that has claimed thousands of lives – but attacks on tourists are rare.
The region’s chief minister, Omar Abdullah, said the attack was “much larger than anything we’ve seen directed at civilians in recent years”.
