In this July 13, 2007, file photo, Tamil Tiger fighters take part in a training of breaking through outer defense lines of a military camp, in an undisclosed location deep in Tiger controlled territory, northeast of Colombo, Sri Lanka. The April 21, 2019 deadly Easter attacks in Sri Lanka are a bloody echo of decades past in the South Asian island nation, when militants inspired by attacks in the Lebanese civil war helped develop the suicide bomb vest. Over nearly 30 years of civil war, the Tamil Tigers would launch more than 130 suicide bomb attacks, making them the leading militant group in such assaults at the time.
