Today (April 21) marks 06 years since the brutal Easter Sunday bombings in 2019, with special church services held to remember the victims.
A special service led by His Eminence Malcolm Cardinal Ranjith commenced at 8:40 am at St. Anthony’s Shrine in Kochchikade, attended by religious leaders, ambassadors, and victims and their families.
In addition, all churches across the island observed a two-minute silence.
On April 21, 2019, Sri Lanka was shattered after a string of suicide bombings were carried out in several locations including churches in the island. The bombings claimed over 270 lives and left over 500 injured.
