Washington | Eight separate bomb attacks on churches and luxury hotels on Easter Sunday left 290 people dead and a further 500 injured. A day after the coordinated explosions, which mostly targeted Sri Lanka's capital city of Colombo, the names and stories of those who died are beginning to trickle out.
The vast majority of the victims were Sri Lankan, many of them Christians who were worshiping at churches in three cities when bomb blasts at around 8.45am splintered pews and collapsed ceilings.
