After a bloody civil war that dragged on for nearly 3 decades, Sri Lanka had been enjoying a decade of relative calm. That was shattered on Sunday when a coordinated bombing attack killed more than 200 people.

The terrorist behind one of the bombings in Sri Lanka was an Islamist Extremist Imam and preacher by the name of Moulvi Zahran Hashim (with many lectures online and YouTube – makes you wonder why YT never banned him for his terrorist ideology).

The death toll in a series of explosions in #SriLanka on Sunday has risen to at least 207, with over 450 people injured, police have said.
