2000 terrorist attack on Red Fort
The 2000 Red Fort attack was a significant terrorist incident that occurred on December 22, 2000, at the historic Red Fort in Delhi, India. The attack was orchestrated by a group of five armed militants affiliated with the Pakistan-based terrorist organization Lashkar-e-Taiba. The assailants stormed the fort, which is a UNESCO World Heritage site and a symbol of India's rich cultural heritage, resulting in the deaths of two Indian army personnel and injuring several others. The Indian government condemned the attack, viewing it as part of a broader trend of rising militancy in the Kashmir region and domestic terrorism. The incident heightened security concerns and prompted a reevaluation of anti-terrorism measures in the country, reinforcing the ongoing challenges faced by India in combating terrorism.
