An Israeli tourist who was reported missing for four days, was found in Trincomalee, Eastern Province Governor Senthil Thondaman said.
The 25-year-old Israeli woman, Tamar Amiti, had been missing for four days while traveling in Sri Lanka.
Tamar had not made contact since June 26, when she walked alone in the Trincomalee area and did not return to the Rolex Guest House where she stayed.
Her family appealed to Magnus Search and Rescue for help locating her. They had launched an operation to gather intelligence, question locals, and search the country’s hospitals.
