Thousands of protesters staged a protest march to the United Nations compound in Colombo, demanding the release of protesters who had been detained under the Preventive Terrorism Act (PTA) for 90 days and against the government's crackdown on anti-government protesters using the PTA. Protests have been rocking Sri Lanka for over seven months as the country faces its worst-ever economic crisis in decades due to the lack of foreign reserves, resulting in severe shortages in food, fuel, medicine, and imported goods.
