Troops crush LTTE attempt to breach own defence line – Puthukkuddyiruppu East

Sri Lankan soldiers of 53 Division yesterday (Apr 12) successfully repulsed several LTTE attempts to breach own defence line in the Puthukkuddyiruppu.

According to the battlefield sources, the terrorists have launched at least 4 offensives at Army defence line established across A-35 (Mullaittivu – Paranthan) road. The clashes that broke out around 6 in the morning lasted more than 12 hours, the sources added.

Troops not only crushed the ground assault but also pushed their own forward boundaries as they pursue the fleeing enemy. Intercepted LTTE radio communication revealed that 37 LTTE cadres were killed and 16 were wounded in the day’s fighting. Troops found 18 T-56 rifles; two radio communication sets, one commando mortar launcher, and one motor vehicle, during the subsequent search operations.

According to the sources, the LTTE lost its earth bund built across the A-35 road up to the northern edge of the Nanthikadal lagoon. With the latest military advance, troops have established their positions less than 2 km to the bridge in the Vellamullaivaikkal on the A-35. The bridge is the main road access to the narrow land stretch on the northeastern coast where the LTTE holds thousands of civilians as a human shield.

  1. What do you expect from the “sudhas.
    They have taken too much””pagawa” over the lasrt decades that they will blame the Govt. even if the proof jumps out at them & bites their Arses.
    It is just better to let these paid dogs just say what they want .It is just futile to waste any more energy on them.
    Tell me when was the last time a non white was appointed to a post in the UN or HRW?
    What is important is to just wipe out these BastardsThus we can live in peace.
    If you look at the world today, All the wars around the world has the white man involved on one side or the other, weather invited or uninvited.
    They will wake up sooner or later when these mad dogs b;ow them up because the whites refused to do their bidding.
    We should learn to help ourselves & not ask for their help.
    You have seen what happened with China. They were approached with open arms though China remained closed to the West for over years.
    WE SHOULD LET BARKING DOGS JUST BARK.
