UN spokesperson Stephan Dujriik said in response to a question asked by a journalist at New York Headquarters on Thursday that the general secretary condemned the terrorist attack in Jammu and Kashmir on 22 April, in which a large number of common citizens have been killed. He said that the UN chief has not been directly contacted with the two countries, but he is worried about the current situation and is closely watching the developments. Hathiyarband extremists attacked tourists in Basaron Valley, a popular tourist destination in Jammu and Kashmir, in Jammu and Kashmir on Tuesday, in which at least 26 people were killed and many other injured were noticed. That the attacks targeted by common citizens cannot be accepted under any circumstances. The spokesperson of the Chief of the UN has appealed to India and Pakistan to maintain maximum restraint and ensure that the situation may not be worse. When the UN spokesperson was questioned, he reiterated the urge to remain maximum restraint. He warned that any such step would have to be avoided, which further worsens the situation and already increased tension in the stressed area.
