The death toll from devastating floods and mudslides in Sri Lanka has exceeded 330 people, as the country grapples with one of its worst weather disasters in years.

More than 200 are missing, and some 20,000 homes have been destroyed, sending 108,000 people to state-run temporary shelters, the Disaster Management Centre reported.

Officials said that about a third of the country was without electricity or running water as a state of emergency was announced, in the aftermath of Cyclone Ditwah.
Many places in the area have been affected by landslides, and the people in the villages inside are in dire need. They are in urgent need of food and water at this time.
