Former President Mahinda Rajapaksa has undergone surgery at a private hospital in Colombo to address a lingering knee issue. This procedure marks the second time he has gone under the knife for knee-related complications, having previously undergone surgery on his other leg.
According to hospital sources, the latest operation was successful, and Rajapaksa is currently resting and recovering under close medical supervision. He is expected to resume normal activities in the coming days.
Despite the low-profile nature of the procedure, the news has stirred interest among supporters and critics alike, many watching closely to see how the veteran political figure recovers.
