Sri Lanka was shaken by blasts that occurred on Easter Sunday, April 21. At least 160 people were killed and more than 450 others were injured after simultaneous blasts hit three churches and three hotels in Sri Lanka around 8.45 am (local time) as the Easter Sunday masses were in progress in churches.
The explosions were reported at St. Anthony's Church in Kochchikade, Kotahena, St. Sebastian's Church in Katuwapitiya in Katana, and the third one in Batticaloa. Three explosions were also reported from five-star hotels, the Shangrila, the Cinnamon Grand and the Kingsbury.
