Sri Lanka Navy on 03rd August 2022 yet again pressed into action to clear blockages under Agaliya and Dodamgoda Bridges in Galle, as downstream of water at those locations has been blocked by tree remains and debris. Due to heavy rains received in the past couple of days, the water level in the Gin Ganga had risen, hampering the free flow of water under those bridges.

Sri Lanka Navy took hold of about 34kg and 38g (wet weight) of Kerala cannabis floating in the sea area between Kayts and Punguduthive Islands in Jaffna, during a patrol carried out in the sea area in the wee hours of today (04th August 2022).
