- Sri Lanka's cabinet has approved an emergency purchase of 300,000 metric tons coal from an Indian company named Taranjot Resources Pvt Ltd, a cabinet statement said on Tuesday.

The purchase comes at a time when the island nation is rationing fuel to extend the life of its energy stockpiles amid a supply squeeze resulting from the U.S.-Israeli war on Iran.
