About this sermon
The president of Sri Lanka is appointing a committee to prove new allegations regarding the deadly Easter Sunday bombings in 2019. The commission will be led by a retired Supreme Court judge. The move comes after a recent British TV program made claims about the deadly attack, including that Sri Lanka's intelligence services knew about the strike and did not prevent it in an effort to impact the presidential election later that year. 269 people were killed in targeted strikes on Catholic churches and a hotel. Director of Outreach for Aid to the Church in Need, Edward Clancy, joins to tell us more about the claims made in the British TV program. Clancy shares whether church leaders have responded to the forming of this new commission. He discusses what comes next and whether there is a timetable for the commission to begin its investigation and release its findings. He fills us in on what daily life is like for Catholics in Sri Lanka. ------------ EWTN News Nightly provides the latest news and analysis from a Catholic perspective.
