Meanwhile, Sri Lankans stranded in the Middle East due to the coronavirus pandemic have called on the Sri Lankan Government to expedite their repatriation.
The Sri Lankan migrant workers are reported to be facing a crisis after being stranded and remain without facilities to return to Sri Lanka.

A majority of the Sri Lankans are said to have lost their employment, while some are said to be in a crisis without sufficient food.

Government has temporarily suspended the repatriation process due to the current increase in Covid patients in Sri Lanka but the process is expected to begin later next week.
