The Sri Lanka Army has launched an extensive search operation to find a family reported missing after a landslide hit the Chandirigama area in Kandapola. The incident, triggered by intense rainfall, has left a mother, her two children, and their grandmother unaccounted for, according to local reports.
Troops from the 3rd Battalion of the Sinha Regiment in Nuwara Eliya commenced the search yesterday (01). Authorities said the family's home collapsed during the heavy rains on November 27, and neighbours believe all four were inside at the time of the incident.
Police confirmed that search efforts remain ongoing as rescue teams continue to scour the area.
