Kashmiris donate gold, savings to Iran war victims

In Indian-administered Kashmir, residents are donating personal assets including cash, gold, jewelry, household items, and livestock to support Iranians affected by the ongoing conflict. Local officials estimate the total value of these donations could reach up to six billion rupees, equivalent to approximately $64 million. The campaign includes children breaking their piggy banks and families giving away valuable jewelry, driven by a sense of human and religious solidarity rooted in a centuries-old historical bond with Iran. The effort highlights a grassroots humanitarian response from a region outside the immediate conflict zone.
