Former US President Barack Obama commented on the terrorists attacks on Easter Sunday in Sri Lanka, leaving 290 people killed and about 500 injured.

According to him, the attacks on tourists and Easter worshippers in Sri Lanka are an attack on humanity.

 

The series of blasts in Sri Lanka occurred on Easter Sunday. The first six took place at three churches in capital city Colombo as well as in Negombo and Batticaloa towns and at three hotels, while the next two explosions occurred in Dehiwala and Dematagoda—two suburbs of Colombo.

Also, an improvised explosive device was discovered in close proximity to the Bandaranaike International Airport.

The main target of these attacks was the local Christians.
