Around ten foreigners and 12 locals had sustained injuries in the wasp attack and two of the foreign tourists who were in a serious condition had been transferred to the Badulla General Hospital.
The tourists were enjoying the sights at the bridge when the wasps in a nest under the bridge had suddenly attacked them.
However, the reasons that caused the wasps to get agitated had not been found so far and investigations are being carried out by the Ella Police headed by OIC- CI A.M.M.K. Alagiyawanna.
