කොළඹ සහ සෞදි අරාබියේ දම්මාම් සහ රියාද් අතර ශ්‍රීලන්කන් ගුවන් ගමන් අත්හිටුවීම ඔක්තෝබර් 24 දක්වා දීර්ඝ කෙරේ

This story is no longer in the live feed. First reported .

SriLankan Airlines has extended a temporary suspension affecting its services from Sri Lanka to Riyadh and Dammam in Saudi Arabia. Daily Mirror and Newswire report that the halt runs through October 24, 2026.

Lankadeepa identifies the Sri Lankan airport as Katunayake, while Daily Mirror describes the services as running from Colombo. The reports refer to the destinations as Riyadh and Dammam.

Daily Mirror says the carrier’s decision reflects the security situation in the region. Lankadeepa also links the suspension to continuing conflict-related conditions in Saudi Arabia; other reports provide no further explanation.

The reports do not state when flights might resume after October 24 or provide details of any next steps.
