Sri Lanka says sinks 3 rebel boats, 18 dead
Friday, 28 September 2007 - 1:35 PM SL Time

Sri Lanka`s navy sank three Tamil Tiger rebel boats off the island`s northeast coast, killing 18 rebels on board, the military said on Friday.

Fighting between the military and the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam, who want a separate homeland for minority ethnic Tamils in the north and east, has escalated since the government launched an offensive in the northwest earlier this month.

The latest battle took place late on Thursday when the Sri Lankan boats sighted 20 rebel boats in the seas off Pulmudai, near the rebels` de facto state in the far north.

`The navy destroyed three boats and after listening to communications they confirmed 18 Tigers killed including a leader,` said military spokesman Brigadier Udaya Nanaykkara.

One navy sailor was killed and another injured, he said.

The LTTE were not immediately available for comment.

Military Said:
All the ships and boats belonged to LTTE are sunk.

Military Said:
All the LTTE cadres are killed

Military Said:
VP was carried by tsunami in Dec 2004

Military Said:
Soosai is no more but Charles Antony is the head of the Black Tigers.

Sareth Fonseka said:
T
amil Tiger rebels have lost 60percent of the territory they controlled in the island's Northern and Eastern provinces during the last two years.

PS: In 1996 LTTE was driven out of Jaffna and didn't have any territory.

101 govt controlled and funded medias copied the news and spread it worldwide.

Elephant house:

You're right, they're just pissed the UN didn't support their terrorism.

Now their last hope is the filthy NGO Bas's.

You want to know the truth?

Here it is:

Three Sri Lanka Navy (SLN) Dvora gunboats were destroyed by the Sea Tigers Thursday night when more than 17 Dvora boats engaged in a heavy sea fight with Sea Tiger flotillas in the seas off Pulmoaddai.


Sri Lanka Navy boats were pushed back to the east port harbor


Looks like SLN got severe beating this time!
