Sri Lanka's nationwide lockdown was lifted after a selective curfew a month ago was reimposed during a surge in coronavirus infections, according to AFP.
Health officials said new infections reported since April 30 were from Sri Lankans stranded in the Middle East who were brought home on special flights and quarantined.
A cluster in a navy camp was controlled with the facility still under lockdown, they said.
“There has been no community spread of the virus and the infections at the Welisara navy camp are now contained,” a health official told AFP.
