Many people in the Hambantota district were seen coming into towns for their daily needs after the curfew in the district was lifted for a prolonged period after a month.

Some people weren't even wearing masks.
There were also long lines at many wine stores in the district, with many customers ignoring social distancing guidelines and standing close to each other.
