Demonstrations have continued for a second day outside the UN's Colombo offices with protesters angry over its probe into alleged war crimes, reports BBC.
UN staff in Colombo have been asked to work from home. Only a few key people are at the office in the city centre.
The BBC's Charles Haviland in Colombo says that the UN operation in Sri Lanka has been significantly disrupted.
Housing Minister Wimal Weerawansa again led the protests on Wednesday. He argues that the probe is unnecessary.
"We're fighting for the withdrawal of Ban Ki-Moon's advisory panel," Mr Weerawansa told the BBC.
