Navy media spokes person, Commander D.K.P. Dasanayaka told LeN that the destroyed vessel had been carrying ammunition for Artilleries. He said navy has discovered some boxes when they were adrift in the sea after the attack and later discovered that they contained artilleries. He said at least 10,000 ammunition used for artillery might have been onboard the suspected vessel.
The incident occurred around 6.30 this morning. The navy has suspected the vessel since it had not been carrying a flag and has inquired on it through international radio networks. The navy media spokes person, Commander D.K.P. Dasanayaka told `LeN` that after realizing that the vessel had provided wrong information it has been called to the nearest Galle Fort, and that since the vessel has ignored the orders and has paced to the southern direction the navy had fired some warning shots.
He further stated that the vessel had attacked the navy observation boats and since, the navy was compelled to return fire, due to which the vessel exploded and sank.
Commander Dasanayaka said that according to the information from the navy observation boats, the vessel is about 70-75 meters long and from the nature of the explosion they are suspecting it be carrying arms and explosives.

Another ghost ship destroyed carrying 10,000 artillery shells.
These artillery shells were individually counted by the heroic SLN sailors while they were sinking in the sea.
Bravo, bravo.
More punnakku for the sinhala morons. |

| Nothing is working for poor LTTE and its supporters. Their money is either going up in flames or sinking to the bottom of the sea. Govt must draw up plans to drive LTTE terrorists out of their remaining pockets before they get another arms shipment. No time to waste. |

i am sure they dont need to count them but can calculate it from the explosion Sound, draft level, time to sink etc.

Bro, you dont worry. Everything is hunky-dory. LTTE is winning everywhere and Elam will be here before you know. :) Dont believe in these fake news and you can continue to donate hard earned money.
Besides, if there were any LTTE cadres, your air farce can rescue them. LOL.
