Sri Lanka newspaper halts printing amid shortages

Mar 25 (Hindu)
Sri Lanka’s popular daily newspaper The Island, which was published without interruption during the civil war , has now halted its print edition, owing to a shortage of newsprint amid the severe economic crisis facing the country.

“We regret to inform our readers that we have been compelled to suspend the publication of The Island print edition on Saturday,” a notice, published on the front page of the newspaper said on Friday, attributing the decision to the “prevailing newsprint shortage.” The newspaper apologised to its readers for taking such a measure which, it said, was “due to circumstances beyond our control.”
