The District Secretary of Colombo has urged residents living along low-lying roads, including areas from Kaduwela to Malabe, Athurugiriya to Malabe, and Malabe to Battaramulla, to evacuate immediately to safer locations.
The warning was issued due to the risk of flooding from a potential overflow of the Ambatale bund.
Residents who evacuate their homes have been advised to proceed to designated shelters at Malabe Boys’ School and Pittugala Yasodara School.
