NBRO warns landslide risk persists in several areas despite lifting of red alerts

The National Building Research Organisation (NBRO) has cautioned that although landslide red alerts have been lifted, the risk in the affected areas has not yet fully subsided.

Senior Scientist at the NBRO, Hasali Semasinghe stated that the warnings were lifted following a reduction in rainfall. 

However, she emphasized that the public should refrain from returning to high-risk areas until relevant authorities conduct thorough inspections and declare the locations safe.
