"U.S. Embassy Colombo has lifted travel restrictions issued on October 23, 2024, for Arugam Bay.

Last week it emerged that the travel advisory had been issued following the US Department of Justice charging an Iranian national of plotting to assassinate then- US Presidential candidate Donald Trump, who was also tasked with targeting Israeli tourists in Sri Lanka.
