Description:
On the night of 15 November 2025, a devastating explosion rocked the Nowgam police station on the outskirts of Srinagar, in the Indian-administered Kashmir region. The blast occurred while a forensic team, along with police officials, was examining a large cache of confiscated explosives.
According to authorities, the materials being handled came from a major “white-collar” terror module previously busted in Faridabad, Haryana. Soil-shaking CCTV footage shows a fireball erupting, a shockwave overturning vehicles, and debris being hurled across the compound.
Tragically, the blast killed nine people, most of whom were police and forensic personnel, and injured dozens more — with reports of over 30 casualties. Some reports place the injured at 27, while others suggest up to 32. The force of the explosion was so intense that body parts were recovered from houses nearly 100–200 meters away.
