Easter Sri Lanka Bombing: Watch scary moment suicide bomber walked into church (video)

A CCTV footage of a suicide bomber entering a church before the Sri Lanka Easter Bombing occurred, has been released days after the attack.

The Easter Sunday attacks that killed more than 320 people in Sri Lanka were reportedly a response to the mass shooting at a mosque in Christchurch in March according to the Sri Lanka’s minister of state.

Ruwan Wijewardene told a special sitting of the national body on Tuesday afternoon that investigations had shown “this attack was carried out in retaliation for the attack against Muslims in Christchurch”, he said. The minister presented no evidence for the claim.

At least 45 children were among the more than 320 people killed in the suicide bomb attacks in Sri Lanka, the United Nations said Tuesday.

“The total now is 45 children who died,” UNICEF spokesman Christophe Boulierac told reporters in Geneva, stressing that others “are wounded and are now fighting for their lives,” meaning the toll among minors from the Sunday attacks could rise.

ISIS on the other hand, have claimed Sunday’s suicide attacks in Sri Lanka, claiming they were the work of “fighters of the Islamic State” via their Amaq news agency. The group did not provide any evidence to support the claim.
