Flood in Sri Lanka

Heavy rainfall caused by adverse weather conditions started on 11 October and continued over the following days. Several areas in the Western Province of Sri Lanka experienced flooding.

Navy flood relief teams were dispatched to the Gampaha and Colombo districts, working in coordination with the Disaster Management Center (DMC). The Kalu Ganga, Kelani Ganga, and Aththanagalu Oya rivers overflowed, causing flooding in Kaduwela, Biyagama, Ihalagama, and Ja-Ela. Schools were closed on the following Monday in the capital city Colombo and its suburbs. Flooding impacted homes, fields, and roads.

The DMC reported three people had drowned, and 134,000 people had been affected by the floods.
