<p>The United Nations said it will launch an emergency appeal for funds to help those affected by floods that have ravaged Sri Lanka&#8217;s east for days.</p>
<p>With vast rice fields that were ready for harvesting inundated, many have had their livelihoods disrupted.</p>
<p>UN Resident and Humanitarian Coordinator Neil Buhne said in a statement that the United Nations will call for millions of dollars in aid to help replant the fields and compensate those who have lost money due to the floods.</p>
<p>As floodwaters slowly receded in the worst-hit Eastern Province, most people remain in temporary shelters.</p>
<p>However, some in Karaithivu village in eastern Ampara district came out for rituals marking the ethnic Tamils&#8217; traditional harvest festival.</p>
