Sri Lanka has dropped fifteen places and ranks 150th in the 2024 World Press Freedom Index, published annually by Reporters Without Borders (RSF). 
The Department of Meteorology has issued an advisory for high waves for the sea areas extending from Kalpitiya to Pottuvil via Colombo, Galle and Hambantota for the period from 05.00 a.m. tomorrow (04 May) to 05.00 a.m. the following day. 
Forty-four Sri Lankans who were in different prisons across the United Arab Emirates (UAE) have been pardoned by a Royal order, the Embassy of Sri Lanka in Abu Dhabi said. 
At least 33 individuals including schoolchildren have been injured and hospitalised following a head-on collision involving a Sisu Sariya bus and a bus belonging to the Sri Lanka Transport Board (SLTB) near the E.C.C. Junction in Ampara. 
It has been decided to restrict local pilgrims from climbing Sri Pada (Adam s Peak) during the off-season. Copyright © 2007 - 2024 Col3neg. All Rights Reserved.
