June 19, Colombo (LNW): The Sri Lankan government is fully prepared to evacuate its citizens from Israel if the situation worsens due to the ongoing conflict, Foreign Minister Vijitha Herath told Parliament today.

Responding to a question raised by SJB MP Rohana Bandara, the Minister said arrangements are in place to bring Sri Lankan expatriate workers home should an emergency arise.

“We will bring them to bordering countries by land and will send flights to bring them back home,” he said.

The government continues to monitor the situation closely and is ready to act swiftly if evacuation becomes necessary.
