Ranil Wickremesinghe @RW UNP I strongly condemn the cowardly attacks on our people today. I call upon all Sri Lankans during this tragic time to remain united and strong. Please avoid propagating unverified reports and speculation. The government is taking immediate steps to contain this situation. 2:46 AM - 21 Apr 2019
Sarita Marlou added a post to the album: Colombo 2019 with Selena Cabusas and Mar Silverio at Shangri-La Hotel Colombo Yesterday at 12:12 AM-Colombo, Sri Lanka Such a sad day in Sri Lanka. Thank you for all your messages and calls All 3 of us are safe. J The bomb blasted inside Table One Restaurant on the 3rd floor, the main restaurant of the Shangri-La Hotel, Colombo where people were apparently having their Easter breakfast.Felt the blast all the way up to the 17th floor where we were sleeping. Few minutes later, we were asked to evacuate the hotel. While running down the stairs, saw a lot of blood on the floor but we were still clueless as to what really happened Only after we got out of the hotel that we knew about the unfortunate incident and that it also hit two other nearby hotels, Cinnamon Grand and The Kingsbury. Apparently, churches were bombed, too. What a tragic day for Sri Lanka indeed What brought a tear in my eye was when they handed out food that was prepared with so much love and anticipation for the supposed Easter celebration of the hotel. My heart goes to the staff who prepared these and got injured from the blast unfortunately Thankful to the management and staff of the hotel for putting everyone's safety in priority and working tirelessly to ensure that we are all okay Again, thank you for all your concern. Mar, Selena, and I are all safe Please continue praying for peace all over the world, not only in Sri Lanka May you all have a Blessed Easter Sunday.J #PrayForSriLanka
