TRF Explained: Lashkar's Proxy Banned By U.S. After Pahalgam Attack | N18G

Description: The United States has officially designated The Resistance Front (TRF), a proxy of Pakistan-based Lashkar-e-Taiba, as a Foreign Terrorist Organization. This move comes just months after TRF was linked to the brutal massacre of 26 civilians in Pahalgam, Kashmir. In this report, Shivani Singh explains how TRF operates as an online propaganda front, why its creation was tied to Pakistan’s attempts to dodge FATF scrutiny, and how the U.S. designation marks a major diplomatic win for India in its fight against cross-border terrorism.
