The Sri Lanka Air Force (SLAF) has appealed to the public to refrain from using drones as they were causing a significant risk to the humanitarian and relief operations carried out by their helicopters.
‘The presence of drones whether authorised or unauthorised in active airspace can interfere with flight paths, disrupt critical rescue and relief missions and may lead to tragic aircraft accidents. Such incidents endanger the lives of aircrew members, jeopardise valuable air assets and place people on the ground at serious risk, the SLAF said.
“The SLAF kindly requests the public to: 4. Refrain from operating drones in areas where SLAF aircraft or other response aircraft are engaged in relief missions’', the Air Force said.
They also called to inform the SLAF of all drone take-off and landing times—whether authorised or unauthorised before conducting any drone operations by contacting: General Lines: 0112343970 / 0112343971 Hotline: 115.
In a dramatic turn of events that could only be missed by those truly living under a rock, the eruption of a metaphorical ’’Supernova’’ in early January 2026 has signified the collapse of the world law and economic order as we know it.
Prime Minister Hairni Amarasuriya will lead the Sri Lanka delegation to the World Economic Forum‘s Annual Meeting in Davos, Switzerland later this month. She will be accompanied by Deputy Minister of Finance Anil Jayantha and Foreign Ministry officials.
