Mumbai: The Indian skipper Virat Kohli paid his tribute to martyrs and civilians who lost their lives in the 26/11 Mumbai attacks.
Virat Kohli took to twitter to pay his tribute to the ‘Bravehearts’ and civilians who lost their lives in the terrorist attacks back in 2008.
On 26 November 2008, 10 terrorists of Lashkar-e-Taiba carried out a series of attacks in the city, targeting major points of the city like the Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus, The Taj Palace and Tower, Oberoi Trident, Mumbai Chabad House, Leopold Cafe, Cama Hospital, The Nariman House, the Metro Cinema, and St. Xavier’s College. 174 people were killed in the attacks, and more than 300 suffered from injuries.
The Indian captain wrote, “Remembering the Bravehearts and the innocent civilians who lost their lives during the 26/11 attacks. Gone but never forgotten.”
On the day of the attack, Team India was taking on England in the fifth ODI of the seven-match series in Cuttack. While the match was completed and India cruised to a six-wicket win, the other two matches were cancelled due to security issues.
