World leaders condemn Sri Lanka bombings

World leaders have condemned the series of blasts in Sri Lanka that left at least 138 people dead and more than 400 wounded.

British Prime Minister Theresa May described the attacks as "truly appalling", while Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi stressed there's "no place for such barbarism in our region". 

The acts of violence against churches and hotels in Sri Lanka are truly appalling, and my deepest sympathies go out to all of those affected at this tragic time.

We must stand together to make sure that no one should ever have to practise their faith in fear.

"New Zealand condemns all acts of terrorism and our resolve has only been strengthened by the attack on our soil," she stressed.

Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison said he thinking of those killed in a "horrific terrorist attack", while Russian President Vladimir Putin denounced the attacks as "cruel and cynical".
