Press Release
11th October 2006
SOS Malta's Operations in Sri Lanka
The tsunami killed 35,322 people, displaced 1,000,000 persons and affected over two thirds of the island’s coastline and outlying 13 districts. Besides the tremendous loss of life and injuries, the tsunami caused extensive damage to property and disruptions of fisheries and other livelihood activities and business assets.
Thanks to the quick response by the government, local communities, local NGOs, private sector and the international community, the country recorded no additional deaths because of tsunami related diseases or lack of delayed medical treatment. SOS Malta was amongst the international community cooperating in order to ensure that humanitarian assistance reached those in need.
