| Sri Lanka Air Force destroys LTTE base |
| 2007-10-18 |
| Sri Lanka Air Force fighter jets completely destroyed an LTTE military and logistic base located at south of Puthukkudiyiruppu in Mullaitivu this afternoon, the Media Center for National Security said. The target was reportedly an LTTE military hardware and equipment supply and transport center. With all this naval and air interdiction, the Sri Lankans sure are waging war just like Americans. Nobody does interdiction like we do. Where'd they get the idea to start doing this on such a large scale? Meanwhile, MCNS said that seven bodies of LTTE female cadres recovered today from Nellikulam in Vavuniya where clashes took place yesterday were handed over to the Vavuniya hospital. MCNS said that 24 Tiger cadres were killed yesterday following an intense battle near a defense line in Mullikulam in Vavuniya district. Ground troops however say that nearly 30 LTTE Tigers were killed. One soldier also died and seven others were injured in the battle. |
