A fresh terror threat has emerged from Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir, with a video showing Lashkar-e-Taiba terrorist Abu Musa Kashmiri openly calling for jihad and violence against Hindus near the Line of Control, just a day after Indian Army Chief General Upendra Dwivedi warned that India would respond firmly to terrorism.
In the clip, shared by open-source intelligence handle OsintTV, Abu Musa Kashmiri, a senior commander of LeT’s Jammu and Kashmir United Mujahideen (JKUM), is seen addressing a gathering in Tatrinote in Hajira tehsil of Rawalakot district in PoJK, issuing an explicit call for violence while asserting that the Kashmir issue can only be resolved through jihad.
“Yeh bheek maangne se nahi milegi; Hinduon ki gardan’ein kaatne se azaadi milegi,” (This will not be achieved by begging; freedom will be achieved by cutting the throats of Hindus). He claims to have conveyed the same message to Pakistan’s prime minister and other ministers.
"The Kashmir issue can only be resolved through terrorism under the guise of Jihad," he said, once again exposing Pakistan's direct ideological and political patronage of jihadist violence against India.

The timing of this speech is significant as Abu Musa Kashmiri had delivered a similar address shortly before the Pahalgam terror attack, in which 26 people were killed in Jammu and Kashmir’s Anantnag district on April 22.
It also comes a day after General Dwivedi, in his first briefing of the year, said India’s counter-terror operation Sindoor was “just a trailer” and that the armed forces are prepared for any future contingencies. Speaking at the curtain-raiser event of the Chanakya Defence Dialogues in New Delhi, the Army chief said the 88-hour offensive demonstrated India’s ability to respond swiftly to provocations.
Dwivedi reiterated that India’s position remains unchanged: talks cannot resume alongside terror. “Terrorists and those supporting them will be treated the same way,” he said, adding that India would take action against any attempt to obstruct its progress and would not be deterred by external pressure.
The Army chief outlined three key lessons from Operation Sindoor: faster decision-making across command levels, stronger integration among the Army, Navy, Air Force, CAPF and other security agencies, and preparedness for long-duration conflicts. While the operation lasted 88 hours, Dwivedi cautioned that future engagements could stretch over months or even years.
Tensions between India and Pakistan escalated after the Pahalgam attack, following which India launched Operation Sindoor on May 7, targeting terror infrastructure and air bases across Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir. While the standoff eased after Pakistan’s Director General of Military Operations initiated talks, New Delhi has stressed that the operation is paused, not terminated. Prime Minister Narendra Modi has said any future terror attack would be treated as an act of war.
Dwivedi also noted that terrorist incidents in Jammu and Kashmir have declined significantly since the abrogation of Article 370 in August 2019, attributing the shift to political clarity and sustained counter-terror operations.
