| 2007-04-27 |
| (KUNA) -- Sri Lankan air force fighter planes Thursday attacked a position of Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) in northern part of the island nation. Sri Lankan air force jets today bombed a LTTE position near Kilinochchi, news agency Indo-Asian News Service reported. The damage caused to the LTTE was not yet known, it added. Today's attack was part of an exercise that Sri Lankan government feels necessary to weaken the LTTE's air strike capability. The LTTE had carried out two separate air attacks on government military bases last month and earlier this week. |
