Sri Lankan navy and army personnel evacuate residents following flooding in the Kolonnawa suburb of Colombo on May 20, 2016. Desperate Sri Lankans clambered onto rubber dinghies and makeshift rafts May 20 to flee their homes in the flooded capital Colombo as fresh downpours elsewhere stalled rescue efforts at disaster zones. The heaviest rains in a quarter of a century have pounded the island since last weekend, sparking huge landslides that have buried victims in up to 50 feet (15 metres) of mud.
