The death toll in the horrific suicide bomber attacks on Easter Sunday in Sri Lanka has now topped 320 and the total number of arrests in connection to the bombings now includes at least 40 suspects.
On Tuesday, ISIS claimed responsibility for the attacks. In a brief statement issued through its Amaq propaganda arm, ISIS declared Tuesday that “the perpetrators of the attack” were “Islamic State fighters,” NBC News reports. The group later posted a photo of eight of its radical followers — all masked, except one — that supposedly were behind the attacks; the names listed by the terrorist group were pseudonyms.
