The blasts hit three high-end hotels and one church in the capital, while two churches were targeted outside Colombo, police said. The nature of the blasts wasn’t clear and there were no immediate claims of responsibility. These terror attacks have shook the nation and our celebrities too are saddened over the development. They showed their disappointment on social media by strongly condemning the dastardly attacks that have killed and ruined several innocent lives.
