Sri Lanka President Gotabaya Rajapaksa today declared a state of emergency giving security forces sweeping powers for the second time in five weeks to deal with escalating anti-government protests. A spokesman for the President said he invoked the tough laws to "ensure public order" after trade unions staged a nationwide strike Friday demanding his resignation over a worsening economic crisis.

Earlier today, the police again fired tear gas and water cannon at students trying to storm Sri Lanka's parliament as the country was brought to a halt by a trade union strike demanding the government step down.
