Suspected terrorists have bombed a regional convention of Jehovah’s Witnesses in India, leaving tears and blood at the religious gathering.
Reporting on the tragic incident, a breaking news on JW.org, the official website of Jehovah’s Witnesses, said:
“On Sunday, October 29, 2023, at least two bombs exploded at the regional convention held in Kerala, India. The incident occurred just after the opening prayer.
