Strong winds swept through Colombo on Wednesday evening, causing significant damage in multiple areas of the city. The sudden gusts uprooted trees, brought down sheds and rooftops, and toppled signboards along key routes, including the busy Galle Road.
Authorities were quick to respond, with emergency services dispatched to clear debris and restore traffic flow. No injuries have been reported so far, but officials are assessing the full extent of the damage. Residents have been advised to exercise caution as cleanup efforts continue.
