- A video featuring Rizwan Hanif has emerged, alleging links to Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) and challenging Pakistan's longstanding denial of harboring terrorists.
- This comes in the wake of India's Operation Sindoor, which has heightened cross-border tensions.
- Indian media reports cite a LeT member claiming that Indian intelligence agencies were responsible for killing over 30 LeT militants in Pakistan over the past three to four years, suggesting a covert and sustained campaign.
