A wave of bombings that killed 290 people in Sri Lanka on Sunday was carried out with the support of an international network.
Officials say the government has blamed a little‑known local jihadist group, National Thowheed Jamath, although no‑one has yet admitted carrying out the bombings.
Another 500 people were injured in the suicide attacks on churches and hotels.
Police arrested 24 people in a series of raids and the president's office declared a state of national emergency.
