In contested Kashmir, Hindus begin a month-long pilgrimage to the cave shrine under heavy guard, an Associated Press wire report from July 2025 carried by MalayMail, covers the Amarnath Yatra pilgrimage beginning amid heightened security after an April 2025 attack near Pahalgam. AP wire journalism follows a standard editorial and fact-checking process and is a reliable account of a contemporaneous news event, though it is daily journalism rather than scholarly analysis and was not written for lasting reference. Cite it for the 2025 pilgrimage and its security context; the pilgrimage's religious history and meaning need a dedicated source on Amarnath and Kashmiri Shaivism.
