The new block, which will house dozens of Sri Lankan soldiers, was declared open at a ceremony at the base last week.
“This building is among the series of construction works carried out to uplift the accommodation and other basic facilities,” reported the military website, noting that soldiers worked “round the clock” to finish construction within two months.

Sri Lanka is one of the most dangerous places in the world to be a journalist. Tamil journalists are particularly at threat, with at least 41 media workers known to have been killed by the Sri Lankan state or its paramilitaries during and after the armed conflict.
Despite the risks, our team on the ground remain committed to providing detailed and accurate reporting of developments in the Tamil homeland, across the island and around the world, as well as providing expert analysis and insight from the Tamil point of view
