In this Thursday, April 25, 2019 photo, a policeman stands guard, as surveyors work at St. Sebastian's Church, where a suicide bomber blew himself up on Easter Sunday in Negombo, north of Colombo, Sri Lanka. Nearly a week later, the smell of death is everywhere, though the bodies are long gone. For more than 50 years, St. Sebastian’s had been the scene of weddings and baptisms, of Christmas celebrations and countless Masses. The walls are now blackened near where the bomber stood when he killed himself, spraying shrapnel in every direction. (AP Photo/Manish Swarup)
