The European Union (EU)has allocated an additional €1 million (over LKR 370 million) to support humanitarian relief for communities affected by Tropical Cyclone Ditwah.

The funding will be delivered through EU humanitarian partner organisations to provide basic services and strengthen ongoing relief operations.

This comes on top of the €2.35 million previously mobilised, along with engineering expertise and in-kind support from France, Germany, Italy and Luxembourg, following the widespread flooding and landslides caused by the cyclone in November 2025.
