The identities of the two Sri Lankan women arrested two days ago by Israeli and Jordanian border guards while illegally entering Israeli territory from Jordan have been confirmed, according to the Sri Lankan Embassy in Tel Aviv.
It is confirmed that the two women concerned are 50-year-old J. A. Chamila Thushari and 44-year-old K. A. Sriyani Manjula Kulatunga, the embassy said.
The two Sri Lankans had entered Israel illegally through the Jordanian border, and therefore it has been announced that they would be sent back to Jordan.
However, the Sri Lankan Ambassador in Israel Nimal Bandara said that the Sri Lankan Embassy in Israel will work with the Sri Lankan Embassy in Jordan regarding the safety and future affairs of both of them.
