There was a suicide attack at Fort Railway Station in Colombo on Sunday. The suicide bomber killed 12 people and at least a hundred were injured. The suicide bomber was a woman and is rumored to be part of the LTTE (The Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam). The government is blaming the Tigers for the bombing. Also earlier in the day there was a small grenade explosion at the Dehiwala Zoo. 7 people where injured from the small blast. These explosions happened the eve of Colombo's 60th independence day. Since 2002 the Tigers have been attacking on the eve of Colombo's independence.
